In the Torah
The Torah holds 15,931 sequences of תרס״ד across every skip (2–101,616), 5.9% above what chance alone gives (about 15,041); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 3.4 × 10⁻¹³ by chance alone.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 4 — at Numbers 2:31, reading forward.
The longest skip at which תרס״ד was found in the Torah is 100,697 — at Deuteronomy 32:47, reading backward; a spelling of 4 letters fits the Torah at skips up to 101,616.

Examples across the range
5 of the 15,931 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.
