All you have to do is encode \u05D0 followed by \u05B7.

U+05B7 HEBREW POINT PATAH is a combining character ("non-spacing mark"),
which means that its entire purpose in life is to combine with base
characters such as U+05D0 HEBREW LETTER ALEF, in just the manner you
describe.

The dotted circle in the glyph (as shown in the PDF chart) represents
the base character with which U+05B7 is meant to combine.
