STRONGS NT 393: ἀνατέλλω

ἀνατέλλω; 1 aorist ἀνετειλα; perfect ἀνατεταλκα;

a. transitive, to cause to rise: τόν ἥλιον, Matthew 5:45 (of the earth bringing forth plants, Genesis 3:18; of a river producing something, Homer, Iliad 5, 777).

b. intransitive, to rise, arise: light, Matthew 4:16 (Isaiah 58:10); the sun, Matthew 13:6; Mark 4:6; Mark 16:2; James 1:11; the clouds, Luke 12:54; φωσφόρος, 2 Peter 1:19. tropically, to rise from, be descended from, Hebrews 7:14. The earlier Greeks commonly used ἀνατέλλειν of the sun and moon, and ἐπιτέλλειν of the stars; but Aelian, Pausanias, Stobaeus, and other later writings neglect this distinction; see Lob. ad Phryn., p. 124f. (Compare: ἐξανατέλλω.)
