[Avodah] What do we believe about the Kesuvim?

[Marty Bluke via Avodah]

RHS wrote the following (
http://www.torahweb.org/torah/2014/parsha/rsch_beshalach.html):

"...Towards the end of *parshas B'shalach* Hashem used three expressions
when instructing Moshe *Rabbeinu* to record the story of Amalek into the
*chumash*: *zos*, *zikoron*, and *ba'sefer*. The *gemoroh* (*Megillah* 7a)
comments that this references the division of *Torah shebichsav* into the
three sections of Torah, *neviim,* and

*kesuvim...*Regarding distinction between *neviim* and *kesuvim*, the
following comment is attributed to Reb Chaim Soloveitchik: both *neviim*
and *kesuvim* were composed with *ruach hakodesh*, but whereas the *kesuvim*
were initially intended to be written down, and only then to be read, and
therefore are referred as *kesuvim* (writings), the books of the *neviim*
were initially intended to serve as prophecies to be delivered orally and
only later to be written down and therefore are referred to as *neviim*
based on the biblical expression, "*niv sifosayim *- the produce of the
lips", i.e. the spoken word."
