Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and Egypt share a land border with Israel. Also the Mediterranean Sea, the earth's atmosphere, and the Palestinian territories, although none of these are countries.
It depends on how you define Palestine. If you define it as the territories under the de facto control of the Palestinian Authority, it only borders Israel. If you consider only the territories of the West Bank, even those under de facto Israeli control, it borders both Israel and Jordan. If you consider all of the Palestinian Territories, also including the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip, it borders Israel, Jordan, and Egypt. If you consider the former Mandate of Palestine that many Arabs use when they discuss Palestine replacing Israel, it would border Jordan, Egypt, Syria, and Lebanon (but no Israel since Israel would be gone).
Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Egypt. Not countries but also Gaza and Palestinian territories.
Israel is bordered by Lebanon to the north, Syria to the northeast, Jordan and the Palestinian Territories (West Bank) to the east, and Egypt and the Gaza Strip to the southwest.All of these countries have a different culture and religion than Israel. Israel is a Western Jewish culture, whereas Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, the Palestinian Territories (both the West Bank and the Gaza Strip), and Egypt have a Arab Islamic culture.
Jerusalem straddles the border between Israel and the Palestinian territories, specifically the West Bank. The city is significant to both Israelis and Palestinians, leading to a complex and contentious political status. Its eastern part is predominantly Palestinian, while the western part is primarily Israeli. This division reflects the broader Israeli-Palestinian conflict over land and sovereignty.
-- Lebanon -- Syria -- Jordan -- Egypt (Of course, this answer ignores that Israel borders the partially-recognized country of Palestine and the unrecognized country of Hamas-Controlled Gaza.)

None of the countries bordering Israel are electoral democracies, or free, according to Freedom House's definitions. Egypt, Syria, Jordan and the Palestinian Territories are defined as 'not free'. Lebanon is considered 'partly free,' but still not a functioning electoral democracy. See links below for the data.
