Actually the scrolls were new when much biblical content was already thousands of years old. Although numerous the scrolls are fragmented and incomplete in and of themselves - they do not cover all of the material in "the Bible" or even come close to it. As amazing and interesting as they are, they're definitely not "the original bible".
