The oldest written products or the oldest finished Bible? The oldest products have been discovered interior the lifeless Sea caves. The oldest finished Bible is the Codex Sinaiticus. It became got here upon in libraries, initially in Greek Orthodox Monastery of Mount Sinai, and others. whilst it got here to writing the Bible, it became written by using men around the time of the Babylonian Exodus. It became based off older texts from around the section and ideology of Hebrews on the time. The Torah has a minimum of four distinctive authors and "achieved" after many drafts and votes to contain interior the canon.

I searched for some information on this and found the following:

"Concerning ancient manuscripts, the three main textual traditions are sometimes called the Western text-type, the Alexandrian text-type, and Byzantine text-type. Together they compose the majority of New Testament manuscripts. There are also several ancient versions in other languages, most important of which are the Syriac (including the Peshitta and the Diatessaron gospel harmony), Ge'ez and the Latin (both the Vetus Latina and the Vulgate).

The earliest surviving complete manuscript of the entire Bible is the Codex Amiatinus, a Latin Vulgate edition produced in eighth century England at the double monastery of Wearmouth-Jarrow.

The earliest printed edition of the New Testament in Greek appeared in 1516 from the Froben press. It was compiled by Desiderius Erasmus on the basis of the few recent Greek manuscripts, all of Byzantine tradition, at his disposal, which he completed by translating from the Vulgate parts for which he did not have a Greek text. He produced four later editions of the text."

Earlier in the article.. It also states with respect to the Torah (the books of Moses.. also the first five books of the Bible)...

"Some time in the 2nd or 3rd century BC, the Torah was translated into Koine Greek, and over the next century, other books were translated (or composed) as well. This translation became known as the Septuagint and was widely used by Greek-speaking Jews, and later by Christians. It differs somewhat from the later standardized Hebrew (Masoretic Text). This translation was promoted by way of a legend that seventy separate translators all produced identical texts.

From the 800s to the 1400s, Jewish scholars today known as Masoretes compared the text of all known Biblical manuscripts in an effort to create a unified, standardized text. A series of highly similar texts eventually emerged, and any of these texts are known as Masoretic Texts (MT). The Masoretes also added vowel points (called niqqud) to the text, since the original text only contained consonant letters. This sometimes required the selection of an interpretation, since some words differ only in their vowels— their meaning can vary in accordance with the vowels chosen. In antiquity, variant Hebrew readings existed, some of which have survived in the Samaritan Pentateuch, the Dead Sea scrolls, and other ancient fragments, as well as being attested in ancient versions in other languages."

That depends on how you define "Bible." The modern bible is a compilation of 66 separate books written over a span of thousands of years.

There is no complete Bible. The Bible is made up of different books and letters, which there are a lot more that are kept in the Vatican Catacombs for no one to see. There are things in these that would turn todays religion on it's ears. The Jewish Torah is the new Testament with things in it the makers of todays Bible left out. Eve was not Adam's first wife.

"Bible?"

It was first printed in Europe on a Gutenberg Press during the Middle Ages.
