Exegesis
The quotation itself opens with the future verb estai {Ἔσται | És-tai}, fronted before its subject hē rhiza tou Iessai {ἡ ῥίζα τοῦ Ἰεσσαί | hē rhí-za tou I-es-saí}, “the root of Jesse,” creating emphasis on the coming reality of this Davidic figure. The genitive tou Iessai is a genealogical genitive, identifying the messianic origin in Jesse’s line.
In context — Romans 15:12
And again Isaiah says, “There will be the root of Jesse, and the One rising to rule the nations ; in Him the nations will hope.”
