I was taught that the "Name-ending-with-s-apostrophe-no-further-s" form was only used for ancient, classical, and Biblical forms.

So "Moses'" if you're referring to the one in the Bible, but "Moses's", if you're referring to your buddy who happens to be named "Moses."

Other classical forms:

  • Jesus'
  • Socrates'
  • Judas'
  • Judah Maccabeus'
  • Josepheus'
