Eliam is named as Bathsheba’s father and Ahithophel’s son in 2 Samuel.
Eliam is the 2 Samuel figure identified as Bathsheba’s father and as Ahithophel’s son in the biblical text. David’s inquiry about Bathsheba calls her Eliam’s daughter and Uriah the Hittite’s wife (2 Samuel 11:3). Later, a list names Eliam as the son of Ahithophel the Gilonite (2 Samuel 23:34). The name occurs in at least two verses, both in 2 Samuel. These are the only supplied occurrences for this identity.
