One way around the TOC limitation is to limit it to high level items but at the top of file that is the destination of a high level link, create a much richer inline html toc that shows the level of detail you want just for that chapter or section.

This is essentially what I ended up doing. I quite like how it came out too.. see attachments.
I originally had every testament/book/chapter as its own TOC item, and all in, that came to 1430 items (combination book of OT, NT, and Apocrypha). So instead I took out the chapters and put those as links on the individual book covers and I think it looks/functions great like this.
I couldn't find a readable digital copy of this translation (font readability+eyesight issues), so I decided to undertake my own massive data scraping operation to pull all the data together and assemble my own epub out of it.
Due to the translation from 14th century Middle English to modern English, there's a pretty massive glossary of terms that I need to reference a lot.. hence I was hoping to give myself some quick links to make it as easy as possible to reference the glossary.
I think I will just add a shortcut to the glossary on each chapter title, as well as on each of the book covers.

There is a very simple solution. In the ToC put the Glossary entry right after the Cover entry. Then it's easy to find.

I thought about doing this too actually and may still do it. On my reader though, it auto-scrolls me down to (focuses) whichever TOC item I'm currently reading, so it really doesn't matter if the link is at the top or the bottom, I have to scroll the TOC either way :\
