Bilingual pages hold together when the two scripts share weight, x-height, and a designer’s intent, not when the browser mixes Arial Hebrew with a display Latin.

Prefer one family that already contains both scripts (Rubik, Heebo, Open Sans, Varela Round, Frank Ruhl Libre) so you are not mixing two unrelated cuts.
When the Latin is a known system, use the designed Hebrew companion: Heebo with Roboto, IBM Plex Sans Hebrew with IBM Plex Sans, Playpen Sans Hebrew with Playpen Sans.
Noto Sans with Noto Sans Hebrew, and Noto Serif with Noto Serif Hebrew, is the straightforward multi-script stack.
Arimo/Arial, Tinos/Times New Roman, and Cousine/Courier New are metric pairs for documents that must not reflow.
Editorial identities that already licence Typotheque should use Fedra Hebrew with Fedra and Greta Hebrew with Greta, not a free sans beside the Latin.
Match weight as well as name: a Latin Regular next to a Hebrew Medium will look like two sites. Check both directions (LTR English, RTL Hebrew) at the same size.
Screen-first families that keep Hebrew readable at UI sizes and in mixed Hebrew–English layouts.
Tattoo lettering is permanent, so the brief is correct spelling, final letters, and a shape that still reads as Hebrew on skin.
Faces that mimic pen, marker, or school cursive, for notes, kids’ material, invitations, and practice sheets.
Square, Rashi, and biblical faces for Tanakh, commentary, and liturgical pages, not for app chrome.
