I don't know of any other parsing errors in particular, but these two
make me worried that perhaps there are.


It used to be common for multi-volume books to be written using roman numerals. The parser has recognition of i, ii, iii and iv (also in upper case).

I'm going to take a wild guess here based on a little understanding of the parser.

So isa is broken into i and sa, which becomes 1 sa or 1 Samuel.

In the case of isaiah, this becomes 1 saiah and since saiah is not known, it goes to its default error verse.

Perhaps the parser has changed to not require a space between roman numerals and the following word but did before?

Hope this is not a goose chase.
