Usage of hebrew within a TeX input file.

If you work in Old Code, or in PC's XET, start your input file by
   \input heb_macros
   \sethebrew
You will then be using the fonts Jerusalem, TelAviv, OldJaffa
and/or DeadSea.

Some versions of heb_macros input another file, called hebcal.sty,
which makes it possible to type Hebrew dates (as opposed to
Gregorian dates written in Hebrew). Other versions do not, and you have
to include in your file
   \input hebcal.sty
in order to use that facility.

If you work in New Code, start your input file by
   \input heb_macros_newcode
   \sethebrew
   You will then be using the fonts xxxxx_newcode, where "xxxxx"
means the above font names.    
Some versions of heb_macros_newcode input another file, called 
hebcal_newcode.sty, which makes it possible to type Hebrew dates 
(as opposed to Gregorian dates written in Hebrew). Other versions 
do not, and you have to include in your file
   \input hebcal_newcode.sty
in order to use that facility.
