[@Majesticc96]

He might've said something else in Sanskrit but ig"bitch" was not really that offensive back then

The oldest preserved parts of the *Mahābhārata* are not much older than around 400 BCE. The text probably reached its final form by the early Gupta period ( c. 4th century CE). Using a combined linguistic and historiographical approach, Hendel and Joosten date the *oldest parts of the Hebrew Bible* (the Song of Deborah in Judges 5 and the Samson story of Judges 16 and 1 Samuel) to having been composed in the premonarchial *early Iron Age (c. 1200 BCE).* Modern scholars generally see the *_completed_** Torah* as a product of the time of the Persian Achaemenid Empire (probably 450-350 BCE). (Wikipedia: "Mahābhārata", "Bible", "Composition of the Torah")
