Almost by definition, when you talk about the meaning of "the Bible", you mean the New Testament, and that it either explicitly supersedes or at least recontextualizes any teachings in the Old Testament. If you want to talk about the meaning of the Old Testament taken individually, you either talk about it directly, or talk about the Torah instead of the Bible.
