The problem here is that language changing commands cannot occur in
sections, so LyX is outputting \seleclanguage{english} outside of the
\section command and thus the toc entry turns out to be in hebrew.
Try forcing use of the \L macro, for example by inserting an empty ERT
in hebrew language inside the section. See attached example (I cannot
test it as I don't have the necessary fonts).
