In the Torah
The Torah holds 21,639 sequences of אחמתא across every skip (2–76,212), 3.4% above what chance alone gives (about 20,920); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 3.8 × 10⁻⁷ by chance alone.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 3 — at Genesis 42:16, reading forward.

Examples across the range
5 of the 21,639 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.
