pronouncement stories

[Anastaise]

Пожалуйста, помогите перевести.

Выражение встречается в следующем контексте:
What appears to be a historical narrative can sometimes be explained as the product of the inventive faculty of a community or individual. Scholars applying the method of tradition criticism often assert that in the case of the so-called pronouncement stories the original element is simply the saying ascribed (correctly or incorrectly) to Jesus: these sayings were remembered because they were important for the early church.
