Abiram
Abiram, also spelled Abiron, (Hebrew: <templatestyles src="Script/styles_hebrew.css" />אֲבִירָם "my father is exalted")[1] is the name of two people in the Old Testament. One was the son of Eliab, who, along with his brother Dathan, joined Korah in the conspiracy against Moses and Aaron. He and all the conspirators, with their families and possessions, were swallowed up by the ground (Numbers 16:1–40; 26:9-11; Psalms 106:17).[2]
The second was the eldest son of Hiel the Bethelite, who perished prematurely in consequence of his father's undertaking to rebuild Jericho (1 Kings 16:34), according to (Joshua 6:26).
The name Abram is thought to be the same name, etymologically; the name is attested in a 24th century Babylonian form.[3]
