 {Was fulfilled} (epl(8872)(9374)h(885c)). First aorist passive
indicative of pl(8872)o(935c), the usual verb for fulfilling Scripture.
So James quotes  Ge 15:6  as proving his point in verse  21  that
Abraham had works with his faith, the very same passage that Paul
quotes in  Ro 4:3  to show that Abraham's faith preceded his
circumcision and was the basis of his justification. And both
James and Paul are right, each to illustrate a different point.
{And he was called the friend of God} (kai philos theou
ekl(8874)h(885c)). First aorist passive indicative of kal(886f). Not a part
of the Scripture quoted. Philo calls Abraham the friend of God
and see _Jubilees_ 19:9; 30:20. The Arabs today speak of Abraham
as God's friend. It was evidently a common description before
James used it, as in  Isa 41:8  2Ch 20:7 .
