Years

1991 תשנ״א–תשנ״ב

1991 spans two Hebrew years: 5751 (תשנ״א) until Rosh Hashanah and 5752 (תשנ״ב) after it. 1991 appears 401,514 times as an equidistant letter sequence in the Torah across every skip (2–101,616), 4.6% more than chance alone would give (about 383,787; probability 1.1 × 10⁻¹⁷⁷).

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: 36,776 found · chance alone about 36,832 (probability of 36,776 or more by chance alone: 0.62).

In the Torah

Across every skip (2–101,616), תשנ״א appears 401,514 times in the Torah — 4.6% more than the 383,787 chance alone would give; the probability of 401,514 or more by chance alone is 1.1 × 10⁻¹⁷⁷.

The shortest skip at which תשנ״א appears in the Torah is 2 — at Leviticus 15:31, reading forward.

The longest skip at which תשנ״א was found in the Torah is 101,515 — at Genesis 1:1, reading forward; a spelling of 4 letters fits the Torah at skips up to 101,616.

Examples across the range

5 of the 401,514 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.
