Our Rabbis tell us that Moshe Rabeinu gave us the previous four parts of the Torah, “mipi hagvura,” from G-d’s mouth, and the fifth and final part of the Torah, “mipi atzmo,” from himself.

The meaning of this is as follows:

From G-d’s mouth, so to speak, means that G-d transmitted the information to Moshe Rabeinu and Moshe Rabeinu put it in writing. The writing was free of any of Moshe Rabeinu’s perspective, it was a direct transmission.

From Moshe Rabeinu himself means that the G-dly information became integrated in Moshe Rabeinu’s mind. In other words, the fifth book came from what Moshe Rabeinu internalized and transmitted to us from himself.
