**Betuel** (bahasa Ibrani: בתואל‎, artinya "rumah *El* (Allah)"; bahasa Inggris: *Bethuel*), dalam Alkitab Ibrani, adalah seorang Aram putra yang dilahirkan oleh Milka bagi Nahor, saudara laki-laki Abraham. Ia adalah ayah dari Laban dan Ribka.

Betuel tinggal di Padan-aram, Mesopotamia, sebagai keturunan Terah. Paman Betuel, Abraham mengirim hambanya, Eliezer, untuk mencarikan isteri bagi Ishak ke Padan-aram. Di dekat sumur di luar kota Nahor, Aram-Mesopotamia (Aram-naharaim), hamba itu berjumpa dengan putri Betuel, Ribka. Setelah bertemu keluarganya, akhirnya Ribka dibawa ke tanah Kanaan untuk menikah dengan Ishak, dan melahirkan anak kembar, Esau dan Yakub.
