Ecole Biblique Benedict Thomas Viviano OP (born January 22, 1940, died May 24, 2023) a New Testament scholar and author, was a member of the Chicago Province of the Dominican Order of the Roman Catholic Church.

His teaching life was divided into three main periods, each of about 12 years: first in the United States at a Dominican faculty of theology, in close collaboration with a Lutheran and a Reformed seminary.

He retired as Professor Emeritus of the University of Fribourg to the Dominikanerkonvent Rosenkranzbasilika St. Maria Rotunda Postgasse 4 A-1010 Vienna, Austria.

Viviano also spent the fall semester each year at Aquinas Institute, 23 S. Spring Avenue St. Louis, Missouri.

His special interests were in the Gospel according to Matthew and its Jewish background, and, for biblical theological themes, the kingdom of God in history.
