There was no Bible before the late 4th century when Pope Damasus I and other Bishops held the Council of Rome in 382AD and canonized the 27 books of the New Testament from over 200 books being debated at that time.

There were printed Bibles even before Gutenberg. Wooden tablets were used in which the letters on a page were carved, but they quickly wore out if they were printed frequently. Gutenberg invented movable metal letters that could be used many times and only had to be moved for each page. Unfortunately, his invention also allowed Luther's propaganda to be printed many times over.
