However, when these matters started to become well known, it became necessary to find explanations.&nbsp; For example, the first explanation presented for the verses referring to the death of Moses was that Moses (pbuh) had written his books, but that later prophets, as well as &#8220;inspired&#8221; scribes (who could also be considered prophets), had later on added on a couple of lines here and there.&nbsp; In this manner the text remained 100% the &#8220;inspiration&#8221; of God.&nbsp; This explanation, however, did not stand up to scrutiny because the style and literary characteristics of the verses are the same throughout.&nbsp; For instance, the verses which describe the death and burial of Moses exhibit the same literary characteristics as the verses before and after them.&nbsp; Thus, they must have been written by the same person<span style=\"font-family: 'Simplified Arabic', serif;\" dir=\"RTL\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;
