Many Christians were hunted down and killed by Paul after Christ Died. There were revolts shortly after that and Romans slaughtered thousands of Jews and Christians. They went into hiding in many places. This is why it is so hard to pin down. Sacred Texts were hidden up and people lived in caves in the mountains and met in secret.
King James was the one that ordered that the Bible be translated into english. There was an elaborate process for translating it. The final form was reviewed by scholars and theologians of his era for correctness in the Kings English. King James wrote the Bible or authorized it to be written in English so every person could have their own copy to study and read on their own. Up until this point only learned men had access to biblical texts written in latin or some other language. It is unclear how many books have been hidden up by organization within the Catholic Church and other organizations. Take the
Codex as an example. It was a written text from the 4th century.

The codex is an Alexandrian text-type manuscript written in the 4th century in uncial letters on parchment. Current scholarship considers the Codex Sinaiticus to be one of the best Greek texts of the New Testament,[3] along with that of the Codex Vaticanus. Until the discovery by Tischendorf of the Sinaiticus text, the Codex Vaticanus was unrivaled.[4]
Then there is the Dead Sea Scrolls
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Sea_scrolls
The Dead Sea Scrolls (Some of Them) were believed to have been found around 1946-47 and then some more were found later. A sect of the Catholic Priests hid up these manuscripts for about 50 years. What is it about the Catholic Church that makes them want to hide up manuscripts and ancient texts?
Eventually somone imaged some of these and made them available for study. The Computer defeated the Catholic Church which worked with tyrany and secrecy to hide the truth. Some of the scrolls are still missing including the book of Enoch. Sometimes only fragments were recovered.
The Dead Sea Scrolls are a collection of 972 texts discovered between 1946 and 1956 at Khirbet Qumran in the West Bank. They were found in caves about a mile inland from the northwest shore of the Dead Sea, from which they derive their name.[1] The texts are of great historical, religious, and linguistic significance because they include the earliest known surviving manuscripts of works later included in the Hebrew Bible canon, along with extra-biblical manuscripts which preserve evidence of the diversity of religious thought in late Second Temple Judaism.
The Jews had people trained to write down texts called scribes, they were not secretaries.
