Transformer-based models have advanced NLP, yet Hebrew still lacks a RoBERTa encoder that is trained at scale and released in both base and large variants. We present HalleluBERT, a RoBERTa-based encoder family trained from scratch on 49.1~GB of deduplicated Hebrew web text and Wikipedia using a Hebrew-specific byte-level BPE vocabulary. On native Hebrew benchmarks for named entity recognition (BMC, NEMO) and sentiment classification (SMCD), HalleluBERT outperforms monolingual and multilingual baselines, and yields the highest unweighted mean score across the three benchmarks. We release model weights and tokenizer under the MIT license to support reproducible Hebrew NLP research.
