# Samuel
## Facts
Samuel was a prophet and the last judge of Israel; he anointed both Saul and David as kings over Israel.
* Samuel was born to Elkanah and Hannah in the town of Ramah.
* Hannah was barren, but Samuel was born as an answer to Hannah's desperate prayer that God would give her a male child.
* In Hannah's prayer, she promised God that she would dedicate her son to the Lord.
* When Samuel was a young boy, Hannah sent him to help Eli the priest in the temple as she had promised in her prayer.
