Train רכבת:

Starting from September 2018 there is a direct train line between the airport and Jerusalem's central bus station which is at the main entrance to the city.
Train runs every half hour and cost 17 shekel per ride. I think there is a discount if you buy round trip.

To get to the train: Leave the terminal through exit 01 and it is directly on your right. You can buy a ticket from the automatic machines outside the station entrance.
Please note that the train only runs during the day and not at night. Check the Israeli rail  website in advance if you are not sure.

Down the block from the central bus station (away from the bridge) there's a Mercantile Bank ATM. The bus stop is in front of there.

No ATM card? There are plenty of ATMs in TLV, and most forex fees are cheaper than ₪250. US cash isn't the end of the world either.
