The first five books, supposedly written by Moses, include a reference to the death of Moses.
The claim refers to a passage in Deuteronomy 34, which describes Moses's death. While Moses is traditionally credited with writing the first five books of the Bible (the Pentateuch), the passage about his death suggests it was likely written by someone else after his death, possibly Joshua or another scribe.

The first five books supposedly written by Moses include a reference to the death of Moses.
Deuteronomy 34 details the death of Moses, traditionally attributed to him. However, since it describes his death, it is generally believed to have been added by another author. This is common among biblical scholars who suggest someone else completed the text after Moses' death.
