This is evidence that men did not write THE BIBLE. As had they they would have modified THE BIBLE many times to fit the current trends. Yet in THE WORD OF GOD men's condemnation remains the same. Right because of evolution through natural selection do men's morals also evolve This is all exposed in THE BIBLE.

The Dead Sea Scrolls help us to a degree to understand the context of Jewish life during the time that Jesus preached. They provide comparative information for the study of ancient Hebrew and the Bible text. But the text of many of the Dead Sea Scrolls still needs closer analysis. Therefore, new insights may yet be gained.

It depends on what scroll you pick.
Some are very similar to the current Torah.
Others are rather different.
And others are not even part of the current Torah or OT texts.
But, even if they replicated the Torah or OT perfectly, so what?
If we find a 2000 year old copy of the Iliad and the Odyssey, far older than any currently known, and the text agrees 100% with the current known text, would that mean that Zeus and Poseidon were real? Would it mean that there really is a island where Sirens lure sailors to their deaths with beautiful singing? Would it mean that Achilles really was invulnerable - apart from his heal?
No. It would just mean that the Greek myths we read today were the same as the Greek myths being told 2000 years ago.

My view is that such a belief would be false, because the dead sea scrolls have a number of differences from the Bible.

When was the bible ever spot on? It's a plagiarism of Sumerian mythology.

It didn't. Why do you think there wasn't much media attention to it when it was found?

They prove that the stories existed...
Not the subjects, especially the gods or anything divine...
IMHO
