Rabbi Lior Edri (Hebrew: ליאור אדרי, born 13 February 1979) is an Israeli rabbi and politician. He briefly served as a member of the Knesset for Shas in 2015.
Edri studied in two yeshivas and a kolel in Netanya. He went on to become a manager at Badatz Beit Yosef, supervising meat kashrut.
A member of Shas, he was placed thirteenth on the party's list for the 2013 Knesset elections. Although Shas won only 11 seats, Edri entered the Knesset on 1 January 2015 following the resignation of Aryeh Deri. He was not on the party's list for the March 2015 elections, losing his seat.
