I'll offer some correction here. Holy Tradition is the revelation of God, and the Scriptures are a subset of such.
Out of oral Tradition (note the capital "T") came written Tradition, which we call the Bible. Jesus himself instructed the apostles, who were sent to baptize all the nations, and to that end did they employ others so write, some writing for themselves (St. John in his gospel and Sts. Peter and Paul in epistles).
It is the Church that made the Bible, not the Bible that makes a church.
