In the Torah

At skips 2–5,000, תשע״ה appears 31,522 times in the Torah — 3.6% more than the 30,412 chance alone would give; the probability of 31,522 or more by chance alone is 1.3 × 10⁻¹⁰.

The shortest skip at which תשע״ה appears in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 9:24, reading forward.

At every skip the Torah allows (2–101,616), תשע״ה is found 334,320 times; chance alone would give about 316,888.
