Exegesis
The hina {ἵνα | hína} clause, hina pisteuete {ἵνα πιστεύητε | hína pis-teú-ē-te}, functions here as an epexegetical or content clause, explaining what constitutes this work: “that you may believe.” The present subjunctive pisteuete indicates ongoing or continuing belief rather than a single momentary act.
In context — John 6:29
Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God , that you believe in Him whom He sent.”
