Yocheved Bat-Miriam (Hebrew: יוכבד בת-מרים; Russian: Иохевед Бат-Мирьям; pen name of Yocheved Zhlezniak) (5 March 1901 – 7 January 1980) was an Israeli poet.

She studied pedagogy in Kharkov and at the universities of Odessa and Moscow.

During this period, she participated in the revolutionary literary activities of the “Hebrew Octoberists”, a Communist literary group, and one of her earliest poem-cycles, a paean to revolutionary Russia entitled Erez (Land) was published in the group's anthology in 1926.

[1] She is unusual among Hebrew poets in expressing nostalgia for the landscapes of the country of her birth.

Yocheved migrated to British Palestine, later to be called Israel, in 1928.
