There's one called Shalom, or Peace (I'm not translating; I've seen the font
with both names).  I don't know where to find it on the net (try cica), and 
you didn't indicate what format you need it in.  It's on the Channel1 BBS in
PC Type 1 format.  Actually, try archie with both names to find it on the
net.  Don't be confused by hits on ShalomOldStyle, ShalomStick, and 
ShalomScript.  Those are real Hebrew fonts.
