Text-find-bar in text in Hebrew - makes a distinction between punctuated and non-punctuated text.
In other words - the search-bar doesn't find the same exact word - if the word put in the search-field and the one\s in the searched text are different in that sense.
Example of a word in the 2 versions - שָׁלֶם\שלם. You can try searching for one; and you'll see that you can't find the other.
The same problem exists in LibreOffice, but not in Google-Search (I'm pretty sure).
Any solutions appreciated.

Are you referring to the "Find in current page" feature in Firefox? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/search-contents-current-page-text-or-links
As far as the "spell check" feature in Firefox goes ... Considering that Libre Office and Firefox use the same Hunspell dictionaries I would say the dictionary might be the source of that issue. Those dictionaries are 3rd party open source software which are provided by and maintained by a variety of people. https://hunspell.github.io/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunspell
And I don't know if the "Find in current page" uses the "spell check" dictionaries or not - in one or both applications. But you mentioning the same actions on both Libre Office and in Firefox would lead me to think that may be a possibility.
As far as a "solution" from Mozilla, the best that I can recommend is to file a Bugzilla report and wait for a response from the Mozilla developers. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Bug_writing_guidelines
"the-edmeister" - Alright, I'll report it. Thank you.
