The original bible of Jesus was what we refer to as the Old Testament in the Bible, or the Torah, from which He quoted many times. It's still very much around.

Uh, the Bible as you know it was not written until 1611--and it contained the Apocrypha, which most Protestant Bibles do not currently have. When Jesus refers to "the scriptures," he means the books that we now know as the "Old Testament." Those were the ONLY scriptures that he and his fellow Jews knew of. The New Testament was written, bit by bit, anywhere from 60 years to many centuries after his death (assuming that he ever lived at all). The books that you currently see in your KJV (or whatever) are not the only gospels, epistles, and other writings--there were hundreds of such writings, and most were rejected by groups of MEN who decided for themselves which ones to include or exclude.

The Bible of Jesus.....nope,....never heard of it. You are either a person privileged with unique and previously undisclosed information...or a complete wacko. My choice would be the latter.

they didn't - it is called the Old Testament today. when Jesus taught, he referenced it constantly ("I didn't come to change the law, but fullfill it"), especially the prophets. He referenced them constantly, so people could see who he was.
The Books of the New Testament were written 30-70 years later by his apostles after he died.

Because they like to create their own religion without following the concepts from jesus.

Jesus did not have a Bible, he had himself God

It was incredibly inconvenient to those in power at the time, especially since most of the (Roman) Christian clergy had no earthly idea what it was about.
