What is the full meaning of the word bible?

Answer 1

I think The Bible means the book.

It comes from the Greek 'Biblos' meaning 'book' from where we get words like Bibliography (a list or books) and bibliophile (booklover).

Answer 2

Bible comes from the Greek word "biblia" meaning "paper or scrolls." Its origin is in the Greek word for the papyrus (pa-Pie-rus) plant that the Egyptians used to make paper. To invent the word Bible, scholars borrowed the plural Greek word "biblia" meaning scrolls, or "little books" and created the English word Bible.

Answer 3

Bible is the original word in English, it has no "fuller" form. It comes from biblos, the Greek word meaning "book." Biblos originally was the word for the papyrus bulrush itself; it then became the word for the papyrus writing material made from that bulrush; it then went on to mean a roll of papyrus; and finally it came to mean a book. Bibles were originally written on papyrus, hence the origin of the word. Later they were written on scrolls. The full form of the Bible is the Holy Bible, or Hagias Biblias. So, literally it is the Holy Book of the Christians and of the Jews, though the Jews only accept the first half of it, the Old Testament.
'Bible' is a full word as it is. The Christian Holy book is often called 'The Holy Bible'.

Bible based on its purpose could be:

Basic Information Before Leaving Earth

Behold I Bring Life Eternal
