Aviezer (Hebrew: אֲבִיעֶזֶר‎‎) is a small religious moshav in central Israel. Located nine kilometres south-west of Beit Shemesh, it falls under the jurisdiction of Mateh Yehuda Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 546.

The moshav was founded on 8 April 1958 by immigrants from Iran and Kochi, and was initially named Adulam 9. It was later renamed after Aviezer Zigmond Gestetner, a former president of the Jewish National Fund in the United Kingdom.
