Information Provided by Michael D. Bulmash:

Israeli passports were issued after Israel became a state in May 1948, and utilized both French and Hebrew text. However, they were not defined as passports until the end of 1952. Rather, they were referred to as permits or Laissez-Passer, and issued for a specific purpose or destination.
