Most estimates of Moses' birth range from about 1600 BC to about 1400 BC, well after the height of the pyramid-building age in Egypt (around 2600-2150 BC). Even using the earlier estimate, by the time Moses was born the Great Pyramid at Giza was hundreds of years older than the Cathedral of Notre Dame is today.

According to tradition Moses lived in the reign of Rameses II (c.1250BC) which is long after the building of the Giza pyramids (2589-09BC). Pyramid building stopped altogether c.1800BC.

Was the seventh book of Moses discarded from the Bible?

A:No: there was no seventh book of Moses. The first five books of the Bible are traditionally ascribed to Moses, although biblical scholars say that atribution is not really true. There are other writings ascribed to Moses, including the "Sixth and Seventh Books of Moses", which purport to explain the magic whereby Moses won the biblical magic contest with the Egyptian priest-magicians, parted the Red Sea and performed other miraculous feats. Moses wrote no book that has come down to us today, and certainly no sixth or seventh book. No such book was ever considered for inclusion in the Bible.
