First of all, Hebrew is written from right to left. However, in the example sentence that you posted, Hebrew text is written left to right. (זגר reads Z-G-R from right to left; however it should be displayed as רגז = R-G-Z). I.e., before fixing the font issue, you'll have to figure out how to format RTL text in InDesign so that it'll export correctly. If you only have the ePub to work with, you'll probably have to manually rearrange all Hebrew letters unless the the author only used three letter Hebrew roots, in which case you might be able to rearrange them with a regular expression.

Ezra SIL is free and will do nicely.
