In the Bible, does Jesus Christ ever say anything that No One in his time should know?

Like, for example - there's no way for anyone to know that the planet Saturn has rings Unless you go out in space and see it for yourself (something no one else in his time would know).

Does Jesus say anything like this? Not specifically about the planet Saturn, but something that No One in his time should've known?

Not that I can remember. I don't pretend to set myself as the ultimate authority on the Bible, though. I have a terrible memory! Why do you ask?

that Nathanael was under the fig tree.

superficially, it doesn't seem like much - but you should think about it: this statement alone was enough to make him believe that Jesus is the Son of God

“How do you know me?”
Nathanael asked. Jesus answered,
I saw you while you were still under the fig tree before Philip called you.
Then Nathanael declared,
“Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the king of Israel.”
Jesus said,
You believe because I told you I saw you under the fig tree. You will see greater things than that.
(John 1:48-50)

why?
this isn't in John's gospel for no reason;
it's not a random, purposeless detail.

if this was enough for Nathanael, what are you or i asking for as '
proof' ?

Well there was a man driving out demons but the deciples didn't approve of it, is this man's name or who he was mentioned?

I wonder how this man came to know Jesus and be able to preform miracles.

Not things Jesus said, but there are things in the bible that only modern science found out to be true...

For example: Hebrews 11:3

By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.

That scripture tells us that things we can see are made up of thing that are not visible. At that time, nobody knew about cells or molecules or atoms.


Another one is Job 38:16

“Have you entered the springs of the sea?
Or have you walked in search of the depths?

It wasn't until the 1970's when deep water explorers discovered that there are actually springs at the bottom of the ocean!
