Scholars have debated this. Some say that Moses calls the Israelites rebels and then acts the hypocrite by disobeying a direct command from God. Others have suggested that Moses took all the credit for the water coming out of the rock, something God did, and something that causes a king to get eaten by the worms in the New Testament when he takes credit for a gift from God Acts It appears they committed a double-whammy here: disobedience and not giving credit where credit was due.
He showed us what it looks like to faithfully obey God during scary circumstances and step way outside his comfort zone. First, we know that every good gift comes from our Father James If we get puffed up in pride from the abilities he has given us, we entirely miss the point of the reason God gave us the gifts in the first place.

Jesus preached often on hypocrites Matthew Before we point out the sin of others, we ought to examine our own. Finally, even though Moses lived a shorter life than he expected, God was still able to bring a bounty of blessings from it. Perhaps, in the same way, we will not live for the length of time we hope to, but this does not mean that God cannot use whatever time we have on their earth to be a light unto others.

Therefore, the Talmud concludes based on Tosefta Sotah that Moses was both born and died on the seventh of Adar another Talmudical opinion suggests Moses was placed in the basket on the 21st of Nissan, which was the day the Sea Split, and the rabbis still maintained that the 7th of Adar was 3 months prior.
The rabbis teach that the righteous die on their birthdays, as did Moses. Our sages claim that the three patriarchs and King David also passed away on their birthdays.
