Oral gospel traditions (German: mündliche Überlieferung) is that stage of Christian tradition which preceded the written Gospels. The oral tradition consisted of various types of stories, including parables, miracle stories, historical stories and legends, and a passion narrative. They were passed on as self-contained units without chronological order. Soon they were written down as collections of similar stories.
In the early 20th century, the oral traditions became the subject of study using the methods of form criticism, partly by German scholar Rudolf Bultmann. Bultmann, however, did not consider there to be a real border between oral and textual transmission.
