To be exact, FreeBSD and macOS (based on NeXTStep) are both based on BSD, and contribute to each other. FreeBSD came out after NeXTStep was released though...

True that freebsd is more recent than NeXT, but they re-imported a lot of stuff from more recent freebsd over the years though.

Look at a bunch of Apple manpages. Many of them say FreeBSD.
