Abiram (died 1491 BC) was the son of Eliab and the brother of Dathan. He became his brother's second-in-command when Dathan became Governor of Goshen in 1531 BC, but the two of them were later forced into exile after Pharaoh Ramesses II blamed several plagues on the Israelites of Egypt. Abiram, Dathan, and Korah later led a conspiracy against Abraham and Moses during the Exodus, but the brothers, their conspirators, and all of their possessions were swallowed up by the ground.
