It is in the Bible at least? There a million verses with “He who does not xxx… is“ that are intended to be gender neutral.

That depends on your translation - some translations will translate those to “They who do not”. Many of the ones who translate it as “he” are maintaining the Hebrew lack of gender neutrality, but that’s arbitrary. If the ancient Israelites spoke Finnish instead, the sentences would be gender neutral.
