El fútbol llega a la vieja Iruñea en 1900. Un bilbaíno apellidado Enparan, que había estudiado en Inglaterra, donde conoció el deporte, reunió a sus compañeros de instituto y les explicó en qué consistía el juego, eligiendo para ensayar la vieja plaza de toros. Casi veinte años después se creará la Sportiva, embrión de Osasuna, y para entonces la ciudad y toda la geografía navarra estaba ya plagada de clubes de fútbol, un tercio de todos ellos con orígenes y nombres vascos. Intelectuales, jóvenes, gente con inquietudes políticas y culturales, que amaban la lengua vasca, interesados por la historia y con una profunda inclinación social, que se reunían en el café Kutz pamplonés acabarán constituyendo Osasuna el 24 octubre de 1920. Tan solo 15 años después, ascenderán a Primera fugazmente, pues solo se mantendrían esa temporada, a pesar de haber tocado la gloria al vencer por 4 a 2 al todopoderoso Barça en el campo de San Juan.

Hebrews, the second of eighteen volumes in the Paideia commentary series, brings the insight of a veteran teacher and writer to bear on a New Testament book whose rich imagery and memorable phrases have long shaped Christian discourse. The Paideia series approaches each text in its final, canonical form, proceeding by sense units rather than word-by-word or verse-by-verse. Each sense unit is explored in three sections: (1) introductory matters, (2) tracing the train of thought, (3) key hermeneutical and theological questions. The commentaries shed fresh light on the text while avoiding idiosyncratic readings, attend to theological meaning without presuming a specific theological stance in the reader, and show how the text uses narrative and rhetorical strategies from the ancient educational context to form and shape the reader.
