It could be that TLV security opted to further examine your luggage and not having enough time to load it on the flight, it once happened to a friend on a short hop to Cyprus, she got her bag ~2 days later, the airline (it was Cyprus Air or something like that) did inform her on arrival that the bag was held by TLV security.
With the added complexity of the ADD transit etc. I suspect it was probably a mix of TLV security holding the bag and then the rest is all ET's fault (or their ground handlers)
