Hannah is a biblical character from the book of Samuel who struggles with infertility. She visits the Tabernacle and prays verbally for a child rather than simply offering a sacrifice. God takes note of her, and she gives birth to a son, the prophet Samuel, who would lead the Israelites. In Jewish tradition, Hannah becomes a model for verbal prayer and for audacity in beseeching God.
