Spring among the Pharisees (5)

I believe the answer is:

arise

'spring' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'among the pharisees' is the wordplay.
'among' indicates a hidden word.
'ARISE' is hidden in the letters of 'pharisees'.

(Other definitions for arise that I've seen before include "Originate; stand up" , "Spring - get up" , "Crop up" , "Emerge" , "Tower" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
