In the Torah
At skips 2–5,000, בנק appears 117,525 times in the Torah — 2.5% more than the 114,708 chance alone would give; the probability of 117,525 or more by chance alone is 6.1 × 10⁻¹⁷.
The shortest skip at which בנק appears in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 19:34, reading forward.
At every skip the Torah allows (2–152,424), בנק is found 1,794,210 times; chance alone would give about 1,777,931.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 114,708 of it, so a large count is expected.
