Tarcisio Stramare (14 September 1928 – 20 March 2020) was an Italian priest, a biblical scholar, writer and teacher. He was considered one of the greatest international scholars of Josephology.
Biography[edit]
Stramare studied in Rome and Jerusalem nas became religious of the Congregation of the Oblates of St. Joseph, being ordained a priest in 1952. A learned scholar, already in the 1970s he was called to occupy the chair of Sacred Scripture at the Pontifical Lateran University and, subsequently, at the Pontifical Urban University and at the Pontifical theological faculty "Marianum". He received some important assignments from the Holy See, both in the Pontifical Commission for the Nova Vulgata (since 1973) of which he was responsible for the editions of the text until his death as the Consultor of the Holy Congregation for the Causes of Saints.
The testimony and reflections of Tarcisio Stramare have had, especially since the late nineties of the twentieth century, considerable media relevance, both through radio and television networks, national and international.[1] Stramare himself appeared repeatedly in broad audience programs, some of which were broadcast by RAI.[2]
He died on 20 March 2020, in Imperia, at the age of 91, of COVID-19.[3]
Tarcisio Stramare and Saint Joseph[edit]
Tarcisio Stramare has always had a deep interest in St. Joseph, making known the centrality of the figure and the role played in the divine mystery of Salvation. If we take into consideration the inseparable link existing between Incarnation and Redemption, St. Joseph is highlighted thanks to the role played by Jesus' putative Father, as a true minister of Salvation. These approaches are at the basis of the theological line followed by John Paul II in the apostolic exhortation Redemptoris Custos (1989).
For Tarcisio Stramare the figure of St. Joseph, in the mystery of Salvation, therefore has, among the Saints, an importance second only to that of the Virgin Mary.[4]
