In the Torah

At skips 2–5,000, עדה appears 233,862 times in the Torah; chance alone would give about 234,854, so the count is in line with chance.

The shortest skip at which עדה appears in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 3:12, reading forward.

At every skip the Torah allows (2–152,424), עדה is found 3,627,859 times; chance alone would give about 3,640,130.

A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 234,854 of it, so a large count is expected.
