1984 תשמ״ד–תשמ״ה

1984 spans two Hebrew years: 5744 (תשמ״ד) until Rosh Hashanah and 5745 (תשמ״ה) after it. 1984 appears 186,320 times as an equidistant letter sequence in the Torah across every skip (2–101,616), 5.2% more than chance alone would give (about 177,143; probability 5.8 × 10⁻¹⁰⁴).

Every skip the Torah allows for a spelling of 4 letters (2–101,616), both directions, final letters folded, the written text.
At the laboratory's default range, skips 2–5,000: 17,365 found · chance alone about 17,000 (probability of 17,365 or more by chance alone: 0.0027).

In the Torah

Across every skip (2–101,616), תשמ״ד appears 186,320 times in the Torah — 5.2% more than the 177,143 chance alone would give; the probability of 186,320 or more by chance alone is 5.8 × 10⁻¹⁰⁴.

The shortest skip at which תשמ״ד appears in the Torah is 2 — at Exodus 25:27, reading backward.

The longest skip at which תשמ״ד was found in the Torah is 101,247 — at Deuteronomy 34:8, reading backward; a spelling of 4 letters fits the Torah at skips up to 101,616.

Examples across the range

5 of the 186,320 sequences, chosen across the range of skips — the shortest, mid-range skips and the longest found — each with its verse and its matrix.

Under each example, every letter of the sequence is listed with the verse it stands in. A letter falls in its verse by position alone — one letter every so many letters of the text — so the verses are where the letters stand, not part of the sequence's meaning.
