I am not sure what you mean by hand, deleting individually?
Or something like this.
;; incomplete!
(defun my-anti-niqqud ()
(interactive)
(query-replace-regexp "ֿ\\|ֱ\\|ֲ\\|ֳ\\|״\\|ְ\\|ּ\\|

This you can ask for any abbrev: "why don't you type it at will?"
I think in both cases the answer should be: "Because I am lazy"

You mean another table which is the inverse table?
Maybe the query-replace-regexp is the easiest solution, although I am
not sure about performance and we can forget the issue.
