Vulcans live a long time compared to humans, and have the ability to "mind meld", or temporarily join minds with another being.  Their greeting "live long and prosper", along with their manner of holding their hand up in greeting with the second and third fingers together and fourth and fifth fingers together forming a "V" shape has entered popular culture. The salute was created by Leonard Nimoy (a neo-orthodox Jew) and is a single handed copy of the two handed gesture used when reciting the Aaronic blessing in Number 6.  The gesture is intented to signify the Hebrew letter shin, the first letter in "Shekhina" or the presence of God.  The verbal greeting "live long and prosper" is taken from the same passage.
