Anak ענק
Anak (ענק) is a person named in the Tanakh. In the Torah codes, Anak is found 80,713 times at skips 2–5,000, the shortest at skip 2 (Genesis 2:8) — 2.2% above the 78,952 chance alone would give (probability of 80,713 or more by chance alone: 2.1 × 10⁻¹⁰).

In the Torah
The Torah holds 80,713 sequences of ענק at skips 2–5,000, 2.2% above what chance alone gives (about 78,952); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 2.1 × 10⁻¹⁰ by chance alone.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 2:8, reading forward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 1,232,667 sequences of ענק, against about 1,223,721 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 78,952 of it, so a large count is expected.
