Exegesis
In this clause the subject hē pistis {ἡ πίστις | hē pís-tis} ‘the faith’ is fronted and then linked with the imperfect active indicative verb synērgei {συνήργει | syn-ḗr-gei} ‘was working together,’ whose imperfective aspect portrays an ongoing cooperative process.
In context — James 2:22
You see that the faith was working together with his works, and from the works the faith was made complete .
