Some Bibles may have picture of the star of David in it.

Numbers 24:17
// I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth. //

The Star is David. The sceptre is the messiah.
The Six pointed star made from two triangles was a nineteenth century depiction however. Te writers of the bible failed to employ an illustrator, so symolism later. Even crucifixes in biblical times tended to be single posts not crosses.

It's also not mentioned in many other works of fiction.

Hi Chuck!
It's just 2 superimposed equilateral triangles, a basic 6 pointed star-like geometric shape. I haven't bothered looking but I'm sure it exists somewhere in early Indian iconography (along with the swastika sun)
