This popped into my head the other day. I wonder if anyone here can shed light on it:
Apparently, the Gospels were handed down through an oral tradition for decades and decades. Then, they were written down. But why were they written down? And why then?
It seems that oral tradition was working for them (or was it?); why the decision to change things?
