Hebrew has 22 consonant letters, and 5 of them take a different form depending on where they fall in a word. The script runs right to left, and as an abjad it mostly leaves the vowels unwritten.

Only some long vowels get written, using consonant letters. Children’s books and school books add niqqud, the vowel points, for every vowel, and religious texts can carry cantillation marks for rhythm and stress. Placing those marks needs text shaping in the software, and this serif from Google’s Noto collection brings contextual alternates and localized forms to help.

About 14 million people use the script, for Hebrew and Yiddish among other languages, and for the languages of Jewish communities around the world.

There are 9 weights here, from Thin to Black, with stroke contrast in the serif manner. Pick Regular for a school reader with full niqqud, and keep the extremes for headings.
