Exegesis
The coordinated accusatives arsen kai thēly {ἄρσεν καὶ θῆλυ | ársen kaí thḗly} ‘male and female’ are the objects of epoiēsen {ἐποίησεν | epoíēsen} ‘he made’, specifying the differentiated yet paired nature of humanity as created.
In context — Matthew 19:4
But He answered and said, “Have you not read that the One who created them from the beginning made them male and female ?”
