Eliphalet Adams (born March 26, 1677, Dedham, Massachusetts — April 1753) was an eminent minister of New London, Connecticut. He graduated from Harvard University in 1694. He was ordained February 9, 1709, and died in April 1753, aged 76. Dr. Chauncy spoke of him as a great "Hebrician".

He published a sermon on the death of Rev. James Noyes of Stonington; election sermons, 1710 and 1733; a discourse, occasioned by a distressing storm on March 3, 1717; a thanksgiving sermon in 1721 and gave a sermon on the death of Gov. Leverett Saltonstall I in 1724.

He spoke at the ordinations of William Gager, May 27, 1725 and Thomas Clap, 1726; and at a discourse before a society of young men in 1727.
