SCRIPTURE

"For it is evident that our Lord hath sprung out of Judah; as to which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priests." — Hebrews 7:14 (ASV)

It is evident (προδηλον). Old compound adjective (προ, δηλος), openly manifest to all, in N.T. only here and 1 Timothy 5:24f.

Hath sprung (ανατεταλκεν). Perfect active indicative of ανατελλω, old compound to rise up like the sun (Matthew 5:45).
