Named for the Greek word "Biblios" ("Book") and considered the Holy Book by both Judaism and Christianity (which--at least at its inception--was considered a sect, branch, or spinoff of Judaism named "Messianic Judaism"--regardless of whether it was considered apostate, not-necessarily heretical but still heterodox, or legitimate/orthodox). The parts of the Bible that Normative (Mainstream, Non Messianic) Judaism and Messianic Judaism agree on are the books of Torah, Nevi'im, and Ketuvim--often called Tanakh. Where Judaism and Messianic Judaism divide is the point at which the New Testament (called "Hadashah" for "New" or "News") is eligible to be considered as part of Tanakh (written by some Messianic Jews as "TaNaKH" to include "Hadashah"; written as "TaNaKh" by some Non-Messianic Jews).
A respected or admired book that is not considered a holy book or even a religious text may irreverently or flippantly be called a, or even the, "bible" of its field, subject, or topic of study or exploration. For instance, one might call "The Communist Manifesto" a name such as "The bible of the Far Left," since Communists are very Leftist and subscribe orthodoxly to Karl Marx's and Frederich Engels' ideology as written in "Daas Manifesto".

A collection of scriptures written by men such as, but not limited to, Moses, David, Solomon, Daniel, Matthew, Mark, Luke, Peter, James, John, and Paul (formerly Saul). All were inspired by God and are considered holy and good for teaching, reproof, correction, & for training in righteousness. While faith is required, archeology has proven many aspects of Biblical accounts of history to be true, even by secularists who deny any supernatural elements. The Bible teaches that a virgin gave birth to the Son of God, (virgin birth sounds silly but God can do whatever he wants, because he literally controls the universe, so the point is moot). This Person, Jesus, lived sinlessly and was killed for telling the truth about his Godly nature and the hypocrisy of religious leaders of the time. He rose again three days later and his followers spread this message, with some receiving devine inspiration for their writings.

A book written by a bunch of hippies, about 2000 years ago, who were smoking some serious hash at the time. Never actually figured for their text to be taken seriously.
"Hey, Josh, dude, let's put some shit in their about a guy, right?"
"Yeah, rad man, and he can be like... uh, tossed overboard into the, uh, like ocean, right?"
"Cool, and then, like... a giant fish, just like, comes up and swallows him, man."
"AWWWWH, far out man!"
"And he could then, like, chill in the fish for a few days, before it like... spits him back out, you know?"
"Chilled man."
"What should we call this book, yo?"
"How about, like, someting that sounds like Babel."
"Yeah, like the town."
"Only, bib... Bibe.... oh, The Bible!"
"Holy shit man!"
