Eliezer Waldman (Hebrew: אליעזר ולדמן‎, born 11 February 1937) is an Israeli Orthodox rabbi and former politician who served as a member of the Knesset for Tehiya between 1984 and 1990.

Born in Petah Tikva during the Mandate era, Waldman attended Yeshiva University and Brooklyn College. He became head of the Special Yeshiva in Hebron in 1972, and was one of the leaders of Jewish settlement in the city, and one of the founders of the Kiryat Arba settlement. He was also amongst the founders of the Gush Emunim movement and the Tehiya party. In 1984, he was elected to the Knesset on the party's list. He was re-elected in 1988, but resigned from the Knesset on 31 January 1990, and was replaced by Elyakim Haetzni.
