    the Bible.

    Its title is in fact not The Bible, but The Holy Bible.

    It is a recognised abbreviation to term it the Bible.

    Bible or The Holy Bible. It is a body of literary work, Bible itself should always be capitalized.

    *sigh* You do not capitalize the "the" in the Bible. Also, you never italicize it even though it is the title of a book.
