You can save a few lines and you should use \setupalign[r2l] instead of \textdir etc.
\definefontfeature[hebrew][default][script=hebr,ccmp=yes,mark=yes]
\starttypescript [serif] [ezrasil]
\setups[font:fallback:serif]
\definefontsynonym [Serif] [file:sileot] [features=hebrew]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [ezrasil]
\definetypeface [ezrasil] [rm] [serif] [ezrasil] [default]
\quittypescriptscanning
\stoptypescript
\setupbodyfont[ezrasil]
\setupalign[r2l]
\starttext
בְּרֵאשִׁ֖ית בָּרָ֣א אֱלֹהִ֑ים אֵ֥ת הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם וְאֵ֥ת הָאָֽרֶץ
\stoptext
or you use the simplefonts module (a little bit slower because it has to find the font which takes a while when only one style is available):
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\definefontfeature[hebrew][default][script=hebr,ccmp=yes,mark=yes]
\setmainfont[Ezra SIL][features=hebrew]
\setupalign[r2l]
\starttext
בְּרֵאשִׁ֖ית בָּרָ֣א אֱלֹהִ֑ים אֵ֥ת הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם וְאֵ֥ת הָאָֽרֶץ
\stoptext
