Hebrew prophet and judge who anointed the first two kings of the Israelites (6)

I believe the answer is:

samuel

(Other definitions for samuel that I've seen before include "OT prophet" , "- Butler, author (Erewhon)" , "First name of Beckett, Irish writer" , "-- Beckett, Irish author" , "Prophet, anointed King David" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
