Hebrew years

5774 תשע״ד

5774 (תשע״ד) is the Hebrew year that runs from autumn 2013 to autumn 2014. In the Torah codes, 5774 is found 83,845 times across every skip (2–101,616), the shortest at skip 2 (Genesis 20:13) — 5.6% above the 79,428 chance alone would give (probability of 83,845 or more by chance alone: 1.1 × 10⁻⁵⁴).

In the Torah

The Torah holds 83,845 sequences of תשע״ד across every skip (2–101,616), 5.6% above what chance alone gives (about 79,428); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 1.1 × 10⁻⁵⁴ by chance alone.

Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — at Genesis 20:13, reading forward.

The longest skip at which תשע״ד was found in the Torah is 100,777 — at Deuteronomy 34:4, reading backward; a spelling of 4 letters fits the Torah at skips up to 101,616.

By book (where the first letter stands) · every skip

Examples across the range

5 of the 83,845 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.
