5707 תש״ז
5707 (תש״ז) is the Hebrew year that runs from autumn 1946 to autumn 1947. In the Torah codes, 5707 is found 1,050,630 times across every skip (2–152,424), the shortest at skip 2 (Exodus 26:29) — 4.1% above the 1,009,143 chance alone would give (probability of 1,050,630 or more by chance alone: below 10⁻³⁰⁰).

Every skip the Torah allows for a spelling of 3 letters (2–152,424), both directions, final letters folded, the written text.
At the laboratory's default range, skips 2–5,000: 69,144 found · chance alone about 65,108 (probability of 69,144 or more by chance alone: 1.5 × 10⁻⁵⁵).
In the Torah
The Torah holds 1,050,630 sequences of תש״ז across every skip (2–152,424), 4.1% above what chance alone gives (about 1,009,143); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of below 10⁻³⁰⁰ by chance alone.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — at Exodus 26:29, reading forward.
The longest skip at which תש״ז was found in the Torah is 152,187 — at Genesis 1:2, reading forward; a spelling of 3 letters fits the Torah at skips up to 152,424.
A three-letter spelling is common across every skip (2–152,424): in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 1,009,143 of it, so a large count is expected.

Examples across the range
5 of the 1,050,630 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.
