Spock was played by actor [[Leonard Nimoy]]. In the eleventh Star Trek film and ''Star Trek Into Darkness'', he was played by both Nimoy and Zachary Quinto.<ref>http://trekmovie.com/2007/07/26/abrams-confirms-nimoy-and-qunito-still-wants-shatner/</ref> In the upcoming ''Star Trek Beyond,'' he will be played by Quinto only, due to Nimoy's death in 2015.

The Vulcan salute used often by Spock was created by Nimoy (a neo-orthodox Jew) and is a single handed copy of the two handed gesture used when reciting the [[Aaron]]ic blessing in {{Bible ref|Numbers|6|22-27}}. The gesture is intended to signify the [[Hebrew]] letter shin, the first letter in "Shekhina" or the presence of God. The associated "live long and prosper" is taken from the same passage.
