The last Book of the Hebrew Bible, or Old Testament, was the Book of Daniel. This was written in the second century BCE. The Catholic Bible has deuterocanonical Books in the Old Testament, including I Maccabees and II Macabees, that were probably written a little later.
The earliest New Testament books are believed to have been written around 50 CE. According to biblical scholars, Acts of the Apostles and John's Gospel were written at the end of the first century or, more probably, early in the second century. The Pastorals: 1 Timothy, 2 Timothy and Titus, are also regarded as books of the second century. Thus, the books that came to form part of Christian Bible were completed in the second century CE.
The Council of Jamnia (or Council of Yavne), which appeared to have taken place around 90 CE, is believed to have finally defined the canon of the Hebrew Bible, except for the Ethiopian Jews who do not accept its legitimacy. If canonicity was decided at this Council, the decisions were not communicated to the Christians, who remained somewhat uncertain as to which books really belonged in the Old Testament. By the fourth century, the Christian church began to concern itself about exactly what books should be included, and Bishop Melito of Sardis went to Palestine to discover which Hebrew books belonged in the canon. Nevertheless, it was not until the sixteenth century that Catholic and Protestant Churches identified exactly what books were regarded as forming the Old Testament.
By the Council of Nicaea in 325, the orthodox New Testament was more or less agreed upon, but the Eastern Churches (the future Eastern Orthodox Churches) gradually developed a different canon from that adopted by the Western Church (later the Roman Catholic Church).
The Protestant Reformation brought the need for a defined canon to a head. Luther began to define the Protestant canon, rejecting some of the books of the Roman Catholic Canon. In defence the Catholic Church finally defined its biblical canon. At this stage, we can define the Bible as having been 'put together' in the sixteenth century.
The bible that is used by the Christians, that is the old and new testaments, was put together by the Catholic church.
The Bible was first put into English in the 7th centuary.
The bible hadn't yet been put together during Roman times-people like St Paul were still just writing their letters during that time!
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.
The Bible was written over a period of 1400 to 1800 years by more than 40 different authors, between approx 1450 BCE and 100 CE, in several languages. We don't know who the early collectors of the books were.

Do put pressure on her, and do not have her do everything for you, another thing is, read your Bible, the Bible can also tell you how to be faithful to your wife, read the Bible together, and pray together.
You can't. The bible is a combination of many writers over many years put together over time, so there is no set date for the writing.
The original documents were written by the Holy Spirit through over 40 men over thousands of years. from there, the Lord's power brought them together and led men to put the Bible together as we know it today

For Bible, you put the two words, "Jesus" and "book" together. Jesus: One middle finger is to touch the palm of the other hand. This is repeated by the other middle finger to the opposite palm. This represents when Jesus was nailed to the cross. Book: Put your hands together with your fingers flat, looking like a closed book. Pull apart your thumbs, pointer finger, etc, making it look like you're opening your book (your hands). Put the two signs together and you make "Bible"

I do not remember any place in the bible where it says to carry your bible to church. This is because when the scriptures were written, there was no bible per-say. The bible as we know it, was not put together until much later. That being said, it is always good to bring your bible to church, to follow the individual giving the sermon, and to check out the accuracy of the teaching.
Gird up in the Bible means to put on, typically armor.
No, you do not have to put your hand on the Bible in court when swearing to tell the truth. You can choose to affirm instead of swearing on the Bible.
