Hi, I think the Bible story of Samuel given that his mother Hannah prayed for a child that she would give as a gift to the Temple was a good story. In other words, she prayed for a child that she would not raise herself but as a gift to God in service would grow up in the temple. A truly unselfish quest made by Hannah the mother of Samuel, 1 Samuel Chapters 1- 2:18-21. Samuel was a priest under Eli and his sons that were corrupt priests in the temple in which God did judge. Bible books written by Samuel are Judges, Ruth and 1 Samuel.
As a reference to his return from the grave it was in vision form only. God did indeed speak with Samuel while he lived in the Temple, what was the manner that Jehovah God spoke with Samuel?

God Tests Abraham
22 Later Elohim tested Abraham and called to him, “Abraham!”
“Yes, here I am!” he answered.
What was the reason that God should want to test Samuel?
1 Peter 1:7
Names of God Bible
7 The purpose of these troubles is to test your faith as fire tests how genuine gold is. Your faith is more precious than gold, and by passing the test, it gives praise, glory, and honor to God. This will happen when Yeshua Christ appears again.
Can it be understood from the Bible that God trained Samuel for his position as priest in the Temple?
Hebrews 4:15
Living Bible
15 This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses since he had the same temptations we do, though he never once gave way to them and sinned.
