There was an error rendering this rich post.

Charlesworth, James H. The Old Testament Pseudepigrapha and the New Testament: Expansions of the “Old Testament” and Legends, Wisdom, and Philosophical Literature, Prayers, Psalms and Odes, Fragments of Lost Judeo-Hellenistic Works. Vol. 2. New Haven; London: Yale University Press, 1985.

The Apocalypse of Moses seems to be a missing/misplaced end tag

The Life of Adam and Eve is also known in its Greek version as the Apocalypse of Moses. This is not a bug, but is just two different naming schemes for the work. I can't speak for the other errors.

In this particular instance, the text appears in two columns based on manuscripts. The text labels the two columns "Life of Adam and Eve" and "Apocalypse of Moses". It would be acceptable to have the entire text tagged with both labels and use a manuscript or language designation to make the reference specific but the current tagging is a mess. I should have been more verbose and made it clear that it was a problem based on the text in this edition. Unfortunately, being too succinct is a common problem for me.

I'm not going to keep interrupting my work to point out milestone/reference errors. but James, Montague Rhodes, ed. The Apocryphal New Testament: Being the Apocryphal Gospels, Acts, Epistles, and Apocalypses. Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1924 for the section of Acts of Andrew

The next passage is a fragment of some pages in length found by M. Bonnet in a Vatican MS. (Gr. 808) of tenth to eleventh century. There is no doubt that it is a piece of the original Acts. It is highly tedious in parts.

A fragment of several pages lacks tagging.
