People forget 3,00 halachos after oshe died. This was probably OS that was
well-uinderstood, fogotten, and restored. What's the problem?

IF HKBH watned us to know the REALemeaning sooner He would have given us
aracheology Sooner. He choose t oreveal it to us later. Same with Cairo
Geniza, Dead Ssee Scrolls ,etc. Are you being meharheir after middosov of
HKBH why HE waited until the lat 150 years to make sense out of long
forgotten texts and traditions?

What about Techeiles. How come NOW it is availalble and ot to Rashi Rabeinu
Tam etc. Are WE better than they?  does it bother anyone that we have
techieles TODAY and they did not?  Again what's the point?
