The Bible is the Word of God given to us for our instruction and enlightenment. And to reveal God. Is Holy but not to be idolized - rather to be read and learned from and practiced with the help of the Holy Spirit.
Q "We often hear "The Bible says "this" and the Bible said "that"". Can the Bible itself be turned into an idol? Did The Lord God command and sanction the creation of a Bible?" ============================================================================
Anything can be turned into an idol, but Christians don't normally turn their Bible into an idol.
Leaving aside the fact that there is no such thing as The Bible [you cannot walk into a good Bible store and walk out with The Bible] no Bible refers to itself in its pages as The Bible. So no Bible says or can say that The Lord God commanded and sanctioned its creation.
