Isn't there a version of MS Office in Hebrew?  Maybe the English version is not able, under Wine, to detect the language change and thus change from Left to Right to Right to Left.  

I will state that Hebrew documents under Wine with e-Sword do display correctly as I have a Hebrew bible that I loaded to make sure this worked.
