What Christians mean when they state the bible was Inspired is based upon the definition of the word inspire ... fill (a flesh being) with the urge or ability to do or feel something, especially to do something creative. Inspire is therefore spiritual and not physical.
The texts of the bible called the Old Testament, are the inspired writings of our Fathers prophets and scribes. The texts of the bible called the New Testament are the inspired writings of scribes and apostles who walked with Jesus Christ while he was upon this earth both prior to and after his death.
Therefore the texts of what has been assembled as "The Bible" are not the ideals, postulations and doctrines of mankind. The text of the bible transcend mankind both prior and post flesh human existence.
