Exegesis
Anthropos {ἄνθρωπος | án-thrō-pos} is the main noun, then ek ton Pharisaion {ἐκ τῶν Φαρισαίων | ek tōn Pharisaiōn} marks origin or affiliation, presenting the man as part of the Pharisaic world.
The closing phrase archon ton Ioudaion {ἄρχων τῶν Ἰουδαίων | ár-chōn tōn Iou-daí-ōn} is appositional, not a separate finite clause; it supplies status and sphere of authority.
