I start emacs --daemon with the .emacs content just this:
(setq initial-frame-alist '((font . "DejaVu Sans")))
Now visit a file with hebrew text. The hebrew chars are shown using
freefont. Do the same without --daemon and the font is chosen
correctly.

The daemon does not display its initial frame, so you are customizing
a frame that is never shown.
Why do you request this font only for the initial frame? If you do
the same with default-frame-alist, does it do what you want, both in
daemon mode and normal invocation?

My original response was sent mistakenly only to Eli. Here is a revised
version.
To replicate what I see follow this recipe:
Create the file test.el containing:
(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(font . "DejaVu Sans Mono-14"))
(set-fontset-font t 'hebrew '("DejaVu Sans" . "unicode-bmp"))
Now run:
emacs -Q -l test.el file.txt
where file.txt contains some Hebrew characters.
The Hebrew text appears in DejaVu Sans.
Now run:
emacs --daemon -Q -l test.el
emacsclient -c file.txt.
The Hebrew text does not appear in DejaVu Sans, and moreover if file.txt
contains niqud it is incorrectly composed in that font. In my
case emacs chooses to use FreeMono.

(That was 9 years ago.)
Do you still see this on a recent version of Emacs, such as the recently
released version 27.1?

More information was requested, but no response was given within a
year, so I'm closing this bug report. If the problem still exists,
please respond to this email and we'll reopen the bug report.
