Di cultura [[Ebraismo|ebraica]], Weil era destinato al [[Rav|rabbinato]], e studiò quindi [[Lingua ebraica|ebraico]], oltre al [[Lingua tedesca|tedesco]] e al [[Lingua francese|francese]]. Ricevette anche un'istruzione in [[Lingua latina|latino]] da un ministro della sua stessa città. All'età di 12 anni si recò a [[Metz]], dove suo nonno era [[Rabbino]], per studiare il [[Talmud]]. Nei confronti di quest'ultimo studio espresse tuttavia assai poco interesse, tanto che abbandonò il suo intento originale di entrare nella carriera [[Teologia|di Teologia]].

Nel 1828 entrò invece nell'[[Università di Heidelberg]], dedicandosi allo studio della [[filologia]] e della [[storia]]; allo stesso tempo studiò [[Lingua araba|arabo]] sotto la guida di [[Umbreit]]. Sebbene fosse senza mezzi economici, Thoughnondimeno withoutandò means,a hestudiare neverthelesssotto wentla toguida study underdi [[De Sacy]] ina [[ParisParigi]] innel 1830, andseguendo thencepoi followedla thespedizione militare [[French militaryFrancia|francese]] expedition toad [[AlgiersAlgeri]], actingin asveste correspondentdi atcorrispondente Algiersda forquella thecittà maghrebina per l'[[AugsburgAmburgo|amburghese]]er "''[[Allgemeine Zeitung]]''". <!--This position he resigned in January, 1831, and journeyed to [[Cairo]], where he was appointed instructor of French at the Egyptian Medical School of Abu-Zabel. He utilized the opportunity to study with the Arabic philologists Mohammed Ayyad al-Tantawi and Aḥmad al-Tunsi. Here also he acquired Neo-Persian and [[Turkish language|Turkish]], and, save for a short interruption occasioned by a visit to Europe, he remained in Egypt till March, 1835.

Weil returned to Europe by way of [[Constantinople]], where he remained for some time pursuing Turkish studies. In Germany he sought permission to establish himself as [[privat-docent]] in the [[University of Heidelberg]], receiving it, however, only after great difficulties. Weil had attacked [[Joseph von Hammer-Purgstall]] in a [ranslation of [[Zamakhshari]]'s "''Golden Necklaces''" ([[Stuttgart]], 1836), and the faculty of [[Heidelberg]], being unable to judge the matter, hesitated to appoint him docent because of Hammer-Purgstall's high reputation. De Sacy's recommendation opened the way to him, which, however, was destined to remain rough and rugged. He gained his livelihood as assistant librarian, and was appointed librarian in 1838, which position he retained till 1861; in that year he became professor.
