Fix formal errors found while parsing the files

The significant variant in Jhn.8.4 should probably be a comment, and the main verse number cannot change in the middle of Rom.3.25.


Abusing this pull request for a few questions about the TAGNT:

  1. You have good description about your Hebrew parsing syntax. Do you have anything similar for the Greek one? In particular, I'm unsure what word type "B-" (as in B-1GSM or B-1ASM) is supposed to be.

  2. Some editions only appear a handful of times (in particular "01", "02", "03", "032", "04", "05", "06", "Byz0", "Coptic", "KJV", "Latin", "NIV", "P66", "P66*", "Syriac"). Is there a description how they are based of other editions? In other words, if you wanted to ask some software to filter the Bible so that it only contains "KJV" edition, which verses need to stay?

  3. I am confused how the displacements are meant to work:

    • there are lines with only one or two editions and a displacement on each of them. Why is the line not just moved to that position?
    • I assume displacements count how often the line needs to "swap place" with an adjacent line that is also valid for that edition. Why does this approach sometimes result in words "leaving the verse" as there are not enough lines to swap?
    • When multiple lines for the same edition are displaced in one verse (possibly in different directions), is there an order how to perform these displacements? And do the words that have already been displaced count into the word counts at their old place, at their new place, or are they skipped?

In case I missed some documentation about that (source code or pseudo code is also fine) feel free to point me to it.
