The Bible was written over a period of time in separate books. These books are what the bible consists of. Since Adam was created about 6,000 years ago (you get this number by referencing the genealogy in the Bible) you can safely assume it was after that.
In 1525-1526 William Tyndal printed the first New Testament in English,
Wycliff was the first. His preacher boys would go across the English country side, reciting the parts of the Bible they had memorized to the farmers and workers. There were also hand written copies of the Wycliff Bible. The first published Bible came later, in the Tyndale translation.
King James
He was the first to translate the Bible into English
