The earliest part of The Bible is the Torah, which is the first 5 books. Traditionally, it has been believed to have been written around 3300 years ago (around the year 1300 BCE) By Moses (Deuteronomy 31:24).

Modern scholarship suggests that it existed 3300 years ago in oral form, and wasn't written down until a few hundred years later, perhaps during King David's reign (1000 BCE).
