He created them male and female, soul and body

Before descending into this world, souls enter the Garden" (Zoh.I,284 b ...") The male soul and the female soul are united together. It is only after their descent into this world that they separate, each going its own way and animating two different bodies, that of a man and that of a woman" (Zohar. 85 b).

He created them male and female, soul and body (60x 46) 1978.
The Zohar says “A tradition teaches us that, by the force of the will of the Supreme King, a powerful Tree grew.
It is the highest of all the plants above.
It embraces the four cardinal points of the world, and its roots extend over a space of 500 leagues...
At its foot flow the waters created at the time of creation and head in various directions: it is from there that all the souls of the world emanate.
Before descending into this world, the souls enter the Garden” (Zoh. I, 284 b)... “
The male soul and the female soul are united together.
It is only after their descent into this world that they separate, each on its own side, and will animate two different bodies, that of a man and that of a woman” (Zoh. 85 b).
Thus the souls in the Tree of Life are asexual: they only differentiate themselves by entering the bodies at the foot of the Tree.
