What does Timothy have to do with it?
And Luke did not use oral tradition.
He carefully investigated everything and likely talked to the people involved as he had knowledge or detail of Marys life and thoughts that only she could have given him. And that is for the parts he did not experience himself as he was Pauls traveling companion and lived some of what he wrote.
Eyewitness accounts are not *oral tradition*. Not everything someone says is oral tradition.
Man, you Catholics tie yourselves into knots to discredit Scripture.
Satan must love the work youre doing.
