A:

There was no agreed Hebrew Bible during the first century, and certainly no New Testament. It is believed that the Jews agreed on a canon for their Bible, or Tanakh, at the Council of Jamnia in the 90s, although even that fact is sometimes disputed. Even after the Council of Jamnia, the different books of the Tanakh (in Christian terms, the Old Testament) remained separate scrolls.

The books of the New Testament appear all to have been written by 150 CE, or perhaps a decade or two earlier. By the third century, there was agreement as to what books were to be regarded as scriptural, but it was not until the fourth century that we find several books bound together in a single codex.
