    I love how these religious texts are interpreted however tf you want. “Oh, this part is real and this person definitely existed. But this part is figurative to illustrate a concept. I have no evidence for anything but have faith and donate, bro. Also, live your life the way I say.”

      OP was just explaining the history of that bit of text. You are aware that these nations and peoples existed and had a real history, right?
