In the Torah
At skips 2–5,000, תש״י appears 934,777 times in the Torah; chance alone would give about 934,733, so the count is in line with chance.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 1:1, reading forward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 14,991,477 sequences of תש״י, against about 14,487,953 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 934,733 of it, so a large count is expected.
