I have been told that the priests used this gesture to detect the presence of leprosy. Leprosy attacks the ulnar nerve and this nerve supplies enervation to the intrinsic muscles in the hand- the small muscles between the fingers that control the side to side motion of the fingers at the knuckle. If you are "unclean" then you cannot be a priest.
