HH this is a huge discussion. The Ramchal in Adir Bamaroam https://t.co/SNVqvnq3dB says that the Sages are always talking about the inner reality, not the actual physical shell flaunted before our flesh.
However Rabbainu was asked about the debate the scientists were having then, centrifugal vs gravity and Rabbainu said the truth is like the verse in Koheles 1:4
והארץ לעולם עמדת
It would be hard to say he wasn't referring to the actual physical existence he was being asked about.
(Rabbainu revealed the inner workings of gravity in Likutay Moharan 70).
Another fact. The calendar the Sages left us is accurate according to Nasa to about a half a second a month, and that was by using geocentric models, they don't know how the Sages pulled that off, even though they themselves use geocentric models for many local things. Keep in mind there is absolutely no need for any more accuracy as the world BH will soon progress to the next stage.
During covid we saw how smart and reliable the scientists are, NOT. It could be the whole covid was worth it just to show the world the real value of the modern day scientists. Those that claim that the world is millions of years old, the same people who told you to put a paper on your face and do social distancing, while mocking the letter from Rabbi Akiva Eiger who gave sage counsel. The scientists are the cause of so much evil in this world it is unfathomable.
Fortunate is the Na NaCh NaChMa NaChMaN MAyUMaN
