How did the quran know the lowest land on earth is the dead sea bordering Israel?

"Alif Laam Meem, the Romans have been defeated, in the lowest of the land on earth (adnal-ardh), but after defeat they will soon be victorious. (Qur’aan 30:1-3).


This verse was revealed in 620 AD and relates to 614 battle on fight for capture of Jerusalem between the Persian empire and Roman Byzantine empire. Persians had to cross the Jordanian path to Israel. Persian's defeated the Romans and took siege of Jerusalem. However the shocking revelation of the verse says roman's were defeated near the lowest land on earth, and we all know the lowest land on earth is the dead sea situated between the borders of Jordon and Israel and the west bank. How did the Quran know dead is the lowest land on earth which was discovered around the modern times? It further says Romans will be victorious after 620 in 3 to 9 years time frame from 620. Nobody 1400 years ago knew where the lowest land on earth is. In fact only recently have People discovered that the lowest point on earth is in fact the Dead Sea Shore/ Jerusalem area using satellite technology.

The word translated as lowest has 3 meanings, deepest, lowest and land nearby, before it was translated as nearby land because at that time it was not discovered hence it wouldn't of made sense if they translated as lowest, only translated due to current understanding of the time, after the discovery we now know why this word had a scientific meaning which wasn't translated at that time but meaning of lowest was there. what do people think of this miracle?
