In 1829, Petermann received his Doctor of Philosophy in Berlin for a dissertation on the Targum Jonathan of the Pentateuch.
Between 1830 and 1837, he was first a lecturer, then from 1837 an associate professor of Oriental philology at the University of Berlin. Between 1852 and 1855, Johann Gottfried Wetzstein, the German consul in Damascus, and the Prussian king sponsored his travel to Syria, Mesopotamia and Persia. From 1868 to 1869, he was consul in Jerusalem.
He learned Armenian from the Mekhitarist Father Eduard on the island of San Lazzaro, which is part of Venice.
In his Grammatica Linguae Armeniacae he offers proof that Armenian is an Indo-European language. In 1851, he wrote about the Armenian culture and music and in 1866 about their history.
Information on these groups is found in his two-volume travelogue Journeys in the Orient. Volumes 3 to 5 were released by Karl Vollers.
He obtained a total of two collections of oriental manuscripts from 1532 for the Royal Library in Berlin.
In 1840, he founded a series of concise textbooks, Porta linguarum Orientalium, on oriental languages, each with an anthology.
