well, i don't think it is that simple. even though the bible is not very consistent, it is still one of the few texts that we have that were supposedly inspired by the god to express something that he wanted to say or to do to us. we can consider the bible as an imperfect reflection of the god's message in the human mind of people from millenia ago.

if anything it has a great psychological importance too giving acessibility and the air of authority to what otherwise would be mere phylosophical exercises, way too abstract and distant for most of the people. the bible makes it accessible and supports it with its percepted significance

it is also a bit different with the greek canon because its anthropomorphic gods drew some criticism from the ancient times, xenophanes, then socrates etc
