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: 38,031 found · chance alone about 38,468 (probability of 38,031 or more by chance alone: 0.99).
In the Torah
400,516 sequences of תרע״ו across every skip (2–101,616) in the Torah, close to the 400,828 that chance alone would produce.
The shortest skip at which תרע״ו appears in the Torah is 2 — at Genesis 23:2, reading forward.
The longest skip at which תרע״ו was found in the Torah is 101,537 — 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 400,516 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.
