Geva Binyamin (Hebrew: גֶּבַע בִּנְיָמִין, lit.'Benjamin Hill'), also known as Adam (Hebrew: אדם), is an Israeli settlement in the West Bank, built over land expropriated from the Palestinian village of Jaba'. It is organised as a community settlement and falls under the jurisdiction of Mateh Binyamin Regional Council. In 2022, it had a population of 5,913.

The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[2]
