In the Torah
At skips 2–5,000, אסא appears 69,771 times in the Torah; chance alone would give about 71,014, so the count is in line with chance.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 14:9, reading forward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 1,158,229 sequences of אסא, against about 1,100,686 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 71,014 of it, so a large count is expected.
