There was never any dispute about them until the Reformation.

That would be further east than Jerusalem...The folks who were entrusted with the Oracles of God did not allow them in their scriptures...

Rom 3:1 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?
Rom 3:2 Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.

The Pharisaical party, (to which Paul claims to have belonged) did not have a claim on "orthodoxy" in Judaism until well into the current era. Canonical debate over Jewish scriptures continued way past Paul, so your verses are meaningless.

One has to only review the qualifying criteria for what is "scripture" (establiished after Paul) to realize that it has nothing to do with God but with men, whether it is the Jewish or the Christian canon.
