Would the officials at passport control actually discover if a parent with custody of a child was attempting to leave Israel without the consent of the other parent, in contradiction of their divorce agreement?

Normally, not - unless there was also a court order in force preventing the minor's exit,as part of legal proceedings between the parents. The border police check a child's passport/I.D. details against computer records which register any court orders preventing their exit. If there is no such order, then there would be no way of discovering this, as a routine matter,as records of conditions in divorce agreements in this connection are not kept.
