Why is $E$ discrete?

I am reading through the following proof in Aupetit's book A Primer on Spectral Theory.

I understand the proof, except for the very last sentence:




Consequently its set of zeros, precisely $E$, is discrete.




I understand that $Omega = { lambda in D : phi(
lambda)=0 }=E$
and that, since $phi$ is continuous on $D$ and holomorphic on $Omega=E$ we have, by Rado's Theorem, that $phi$ is holomorphic on $D$. I do not see how this shows that $E$ is discrete though?
