The traditional view attributes these books to Moses, in spite of them describing his death, but few serious scholars today would accept Moses as an author of the books. Deuteronomy chapter 34 describes the death of Moses but also says that "not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses..." This could not have been written by Moses or even by any author until long after the establishment of a nation called Israel. If we explain this by saying that this chapter was added after the death of Moses, we leave open the question as to what else was added after the death of Moses.
Moses is traditionally credited with writing the first five books of the Bible - Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. However biblical scholars say that none of these books was really written by Moses. They were all written during the first millennium BCE by various authors.

There is no "Bible" per se that contains these books. Collectively they are referred to by scholars as the Apocrypha, or apocryphal books, but they are separate works. If you search the internet there are likely collections of them published somewhere.

AnswerMany believe that God inspired or guided the biblical authors. One difficulty with this arises when we look at the controversies that surrounded the final choices as to what books to include int The Bible. Surely, if the scribes and scholars had difficulty in agreeing on which books to include, they could not have seen them as guided by the hand of God. Another difficulty arises when we read the books so carefully that we begin to see the inconsistencies that exist. Surely, if the books of the Bible were inspired or guided by God, there would be no inconsistencies.
Solomon is traditionally believed to have written the majority of the book of Proverbs and the Song of Solomon in the Bible. These books are known for their wisdom and poetic nature, reflecting Solomon's reputation for being a wise and insightful king.
Actually no there is not
The two books known as The First Epistle of Peter (1 Peter) and The Second Epistle of Peter (2 Peter) are traditionally attributed to Simon Peter. However, biblical scholars say that both books were actually written in the second century, by two different anonymous authors.
There is no such thing. The Qur'an is a single book (unlike the Bible which is an anthology of numerous books). Additionally, the Qur'an does not contain any sections of the Bible (although it refers to many Biblical events).

The last Book of the Hebrew Bible, or Old Testament, was the Book of Daniel. This was written in the second century BCE.The Catholic Bible has two deuterocanonical Books in the Old Testament, I Maccabees and II Macabees, that were probably written a little later.Subject to later canonisation, the Christian Bible was completed when the Books of the New Testament were completed. According to biblical scholars, Acts was a Book of the second century, as were the Pastorals: 1 Timothy, 2 Timothy and Titus. The Pastorals were written by an anonymous author in the name of St Paul, but refer to the second century Church. Thus, the Christian Bible was completed in the second century CE.
