5758 תשנ״ח
5758 (תשנ״ח) is the Hebrew year that runs from autumn 1997 to autumn 1998. In the Torah codes, 5758 is found 106,703 times across every skip (2–101,616), the shortest at skip 2 (Exodus 10:17) — 4.7% above the 101,960 chance alone would give (probability of 106,703 or more by chance alone: 1.8 × 10⁻⁴⁹).

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: 10,262 found · chance alone about 9,785 (probability of 10,262 or more by chance alone: 8.8 × 10⁻⁷).
In the Torah
The Torah holds 106,703 sequences of תשנ״ח across every skip (2–101,616), 4.7% above what chance alone gives (about 101,960); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 1.8 × 10⁻⁴⁹ by chance alone.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — at Exodus 10:17, reading forward.
The longest skip at which תשנ״ח was found in the Torah is 101,174 — at Deuteronomy 34:4, reading backward; a spelling of 4 letters fits the Torah at skips up to 101,616.

Examples across the range
5 of the 106,703 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.
