[Avodah] kol hamoseif gorea

[Eli Turkel]

<<I could only imagine that for some reason these notions were known
to chazal and deduced from their limud of Torah but not revealed since
they were considered as being "sodos" of Maaseh Beraishis.  However, I
could not understand why? If Newton, Maxwell, Einstein, Watson & Crick
et al. could reveal them why not Chazal? The only alternative to this
is that Chazal did not have any better scientific knowledge than the
rest of the world around them, but this is rejected by the chareidi
world. So all I have are questions but no satisfying answers. (Or
perhaps flesh out the Zohar mentioned previously in this thread,
explaining WHY only after 5600??)>>

I assume that even in the charedi world the claim is that statements
in the gemara are true
even when they contradict modern science.
Is there anyone who claims that chazal knew modern physics, could have
constructed airplanes
or PCs or heart transplants had they wanted to?.
