Hibernate is a JPA (specification) implementation.
A good way to learn Hibernate is to read the book "[Java Persistence in Action][1]" by Manning. It has 400 pages but teaches you everything there is to know.
Spring Data JPA builds ON TOP of Hibernate/JPA.
If you don't know Hibernate, you WILL get lost sooner or later with Spring Data, even if it makes things easier at the beginning for you.
