  • كتابا موسى السادس والسابع هما كتابا سحر ادُعي نسبتهما إلى موسى مع الكتب الخمسة الأولى للكتاب العبري. طبع الكتابان لأول مرة في شتوتغارت سنة 1849. يحوي الكتابان وصفات سحرية لاستدعاء الأرواح، وبالرغم من الطبيعة القبلاية لهما فلا يبدو تأثير القبالة بوضوح. أدعي أن النصوص مترجمة من لغة سمارية قوثية تعتبر منقرضة منذ القرن الثاني عشر. لا توجد أي مخطوطة أقدم من 1849 للكتابين ولذا يعتبران كاذبين مزورين. يحوي ختم الكتابين على عدة رموز وعبارات عبرية ولاتينية، لكن لم تكن اللاتينية مستعملة زمان حياة موسى ومكانه. لذا فصور الختم مزورة.

  • Das sechste und siebente Buch Mosis ist der Titel mehrerer Grimoires mit unterschiedlichem Inhalt aus volkstümlichen Zauber und Aberglauben, sowie fragwürdigen Hausmitteln. Der Titel bezieht sich zu Unrecht auf den Propheten Mose und die ersten fünf Bücher des Tanachs, die Tora. Er versucht die Kraft Moses zu implizieren, als er die ägyptischen Zauberer besiegte (Ex 7,8 ff. ). (de)

It contains "Seals" or magical drawings accompanied by instructions intended to help the user perform various tasks, from controlling weather or people to contacting the dead or Biblical religious figures. Copies have been traced to 18th-century German pamphlets, but an 1849 printing, aided by the appearance of the popular press in the 19th century, spread the text through Germany and Northern Europe to German Americans and eventually helped popularize the texts among African Americans in the United States, the Caribbean, and Anglophone West Africa. It influenced European Occult Spiritualism as well as African American hoodoo folk magic, and magical-spiritual practices in the Caribbean, and West Africa. An older magical text, a fourth-century Greek papyrus entitled Eighth Book of Moses otherwise unrelated to the Sixth and Seventh Books, was found in Thebes in the 19th century and published as part of the Greek Magical Papyri.
