ISO 8859-8, more formally cited as ISO/IEC 8859-8 (but not as Latin-8!), is part 8 of ISO/IEC 8859, a standard character encoding defined by ISO.ISO 8859-8 contains all the Hebrew letters (no Hebrew vowel signs).
ISO_8859-8:1988, more commonly known by its preferred MIME name of ISO-8859-8, is the IANA charset consisting of this standard ISO/IEC 8859-8 used together with the control codes from ISO/IEC 6429 for the C0 (0x00-0x1F) and C1 (0x80-0x9F) parts. Escape sequences (from ISO/IEC 6429 or ISO/IEC 2022) are not to be interpreted. This charset also has the aliases iso-ir-138, ISO_8859-8, Hebrew and csISOLatinHebrew.
ISO-8859-8 exists in three different forms: if just ISO-8859-8 is given the assumed order is visual, meaning that Hebrew, an RTL script, would be written LTR, i.e. backwards. If however ISO-8859-8-I is given, the logical order is used (also for plain text, such as unformatted emails), and Hebrew must be written correctly. As of 2004[update] the visual order is dying out in the Hebrew language computing scene, being fast replaced by logical order (as ISO-8859-8-I or Windows-1255 or UTF-8) everywhere. There is also ISO-8859-8-E which requires directionality to be explicitly specified with special control characters.

In the table above, 20 is the regular SPACE character, and A0 is the NO-BREAK SPACE. AD is a SOFT HYPHEN, which should not appear at all in compliant web browsers.
FD is left-to-right mark (U+200E) and FE is right-to-left mark (U+200F), as specified in a newer amendment as ISO/IEC 8859-8:1999.
Code values 00-1F, 7F, 80-9F, A1, BF-DE, FB-FC and FF are not assigned to characters by ISO/IEC 8859-8.
