I know nothing about this package, however there are usually more 
things that need to be installed when you install a font.  Usually 
there are some .fd, .tfm, afm, .vf and pfb files that need to be 
installed for type 1 fonts.  Also, you have to install the map(s) file 
and activate it with updmap.  A quick google search shows all the 
necessary files are here:

You just have to put everything in the right place, i.e.

~/Library/texmf/dvips/cjhebrew/cjhebrew.map
~/Library/texmf/fonts/afm/cjhebrew/cjhebrew.afm
~/Library/texmf/fonts/type1/cjhebrew/cjhebrew.pfb
~/Library/texmf/fonts/tfm/cjhebrew/cjhebrew.tfm
~/Library/texmf/fonts/vf/cjhebrew/cjhebrew.vf
~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/cjhebrew.sty

texhash ~/Library/texmf
sudo --enable Map cjhebrew.map
