The correct answer is C. Both religions share holy texts with major world religions today.

Both Hinduism and Judaism are large religions which roots can be traced back to more than 5 thousand years ago. Over that long period of History, both religions produced different sacred texts and, also, there were schisms within these religions, which generated new religious branches that would end up forming completely new doctrines.

In the 6th century BCE, a Hindu prince and ascetic, called Siddhartha Gautama and known as the Buddha, started a reformation movement that took some elements from Hinduism and that eventually would give birth to Buddhism. Some Hindu mantras and Vedic texts are shared between Hinduism and several Buddhist branches.

On the other hand, around the 1st century CE, Christianity started as a Jewish religious movement with different beliefs from orthodox Judaism, like the belief that Jesus was the Messiah. When the Christian Bible was formally adopted by the Church, this Bible included the Jewish sacred texts like the Torah, Psalms, and other parts of the Hebrew Tanakh. This part in the Christian Bible is known as the Old Testament, in opposition to the New Testament, which refers to the Christian gospel.
