You have asked questions that could be a book in the explanation. If I were you I would start with the Servlets forum. You should understand the basics before you jump into Spring. Same goes for Hibernate, I would not attempt to tackle that until you are good and comfortable using vanilla JDBC. If you skip these steps everything is going to seem like magic and your going to have a very difficult time wrapping your head around what is going on.

On http://spring.io/guides you can find a number of tutorials that help you to learn how to set up a web application with Spring Web MVC, how to access the database using Spring Data JPA (using Hibernate) and other parts of the Spring framework.
