Hannah was the mother of the prophet Samuel. She was one of two wives of Elkanah.

|
* Hannah was not able to conceive a child, which was a great grief to her.
|
|
|
|
|
* At the temple, Hannah earnestly prayed for God to give her a son, promising to dedicate him to serving God.
|
|
|
|
|
* God granted her request and when the boy Samuel was old enough, she brought him to serve at the temple.
|
|
|
|
|
* God also gave Hannah other children after that.
