Morphology
The meaning 'to appear or emerge' is directly and compositionally derived from 'come' (move or originate) + 'forth' (out/forward into notice); the verb + directional adverb pattern is a standard, predictable English composition. Although 'forth' is somewhat formal/archaic, a B1 learner who knows both constituents can infer the MWE meaning (similar to come out/come forward), so it is transparent.
Etymology
Come forth may come from the simple image of something being produced and pushed out by a cause, with come meaning 'move' and forth meaning 'forward or out', like a solution that appears after long discussion. So it means 'to happen or occur as a result'.
