In the Torah
A name of more than one word is searched one word at a time, as the laboratory does: the counts on this page are for אבל, and כרמים has its own figure under the other spellings, each beside its chance figure.
The Torah holds 1,012,517 sequences of אבל at skips 2–5,000, 0.3% above what chance alone gives (about 1,009,528); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 0.0015 by chance alone.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 19:8, reading forward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 15,519,566 sequences of אבל, against about 15,647,254 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 1,009,528 of it, so a large count is expected.
