Where did the idea of coming into court with clean hands come from?

I do not believe that this phrase was meant to be taken literally. It is more likely a metaphor meaning that if you go to court your "hands" (i.e.: background - motives - actions) had better be 'clean,' meaning honest and aboveboard.
