The word "Bible" had its origins in the Greek word ''biblos'', meaning ''book''. The ancient Phoenician seaport of [[Byblos]] was so-named as a result of the trade and manufacture of papyrus and writing-related material, and the growth of Christianity by the 2nd century, A.D. led to an outpouring of the Scriptures on papyrus scrolls, so much so that during this time the early Christians began calling the them by the Latin term ''la Biblia'', "the Books". (Unger, pg 144)
