In the Hebrew Bible, Oholiab (Hebrew: אָהֳלִיאָב ʾĀholīʾāḇ, "father's tent"), son of Ahisamakh, of the tribe of Dan, worked under Bezalel as the deputy architect of the Tabernacle and the implements which it housed, including the Ark of the Covenant. He is described in Exodus 38:23 as a master of carpentry, weaving, and embroidery.
