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

First sentence of Ladder of Jacob is a bit wonky as well.

I think the Maccabees is another unclosed tag

Psalms should have a psalm number following …

    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.
