Most people would regard the 7th century BCE as Biblical times.

The term would, unless otherwise stated, be taken to cover the times of both the Old and New Testaments, so could reasonably be taken to cover from the earliest civilisations in the Middle East, dated to before 3000 BCE, through the time of Abraham 2000-1650 BCE, and Moses 1200-1500 BCE to the end of the New Testment, in the first century ACE.
