i think its because they changed popes
Ulnar is how I learned it.
I learned ulnar as well (a.k.a. ulnar claw), but apparently there are different meanings for the "hand of benediction." Both are probably right in some sense.

I thought it was due to median n. lesion.
IE. tell somene to make a fist (they flex digits 4 and 5 due to flexor digitorum profundus being intact (the lateral two bellies inn. by ulnar n.).) Thus the first three digits are extended, also the pollicis is pulled in due to an intact adductor pollicis and loss of opponens pollicis...thus "hand of benediction" first three digits extended and last two clawed (upon telling someone to make a fist).
