Abda is the name of two Old Testament men. The first was the father of Adoniram, whom Solomon put in charge of the forced labor levy (1 Kings 4:6). The second was a Levite of the family of Jeduthun who lived in Jerusalem after the exile (Nehemiah 11:17); the parallel list in 1 Chronicles 9:16 calls this same man Obadiah.
