Our coherent answer, with some of your list, in the Early Christian Ebionaen Canon. Our answer is a little more rigourous in having criteria for inclusion.

It is also a graded canon, not a simple in/out.

Follow the thread and see what you think.

Is this a joke or something? We must assume your own sincerity and, likewise, that of ebion . I assure you both of my sincerity, and that of Douglas del Tondo, the author of the videos I posted links to . He asks the question Was Paul the Apostle Jesus Condemns in Revelation 22 : I know thy works, ...

Constantine was a pagan and turned the Churchians into minions of his Mithras/Molech cult: Saturday into Sunday Passover into OEaster Hebrews into Heathens The patriarch of the Romans into the Pontifex Maximus And then the Churchunists turned Paul from an apostate into an Apostle (sic.)

I'm not sure how you'll get a manuscript C14 dated in the Wezt: they refused repeated requests to C14 date the Codex Simonides a.k.a. Sinaiticus which is a known forgery.

Now that we've got the canon pretty well worked out, I've started a new thread on What were the beliefs of Early Ebionaen Christianity?.

This thread will continue for canon questions.

Please stop talking about Acts. Acts is not history. Acts is fiction. No time for this nonsense. You seem to have a "throw the baby out with the bathwater" approach to Christian writings, and to me that would be like disregarding Josephus because of his faults. I suspect Acts was written ...
