Elisabeth studied social work in Stuttgart prior to 1932 but did not work in the field after her training. Instead, she immigrated to Palestine around 1935, where she worked in a kindergarten in Jerusalem and learned Hebrew. In 1937 she married Dr. Eliezer Ernst Weihl and they lived in Nahariya. There, both Elisabeth and Ernst established a social aid committee. During 1937 and 1938, Elisabeth did social work for a social aid committee and, with the help of Siddy Wronsky, planned to train women to undertake social work.
