Every skip the Torah allows for a spelling of 4 letters (2–101,616), both directions, final letters folded, the written text.
At the laboratory's default range, skips 2–5,000: 88,473 found · chance alone about 87,077 (probability of 88,473 or more by chance alone: 1.2 × 10⁻⁶).

In the Torah

The Torah holds 882,160 sequences of בארי across every skip (2–101,616) — about what chance alone gives (about 907,332).

Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — at Genesis 24:43, reading forward.

The longest skip at which בארי was found in the Torah is 101,486 — at Deuteronomy 34:11, reading backward; a spelling of 4 letters fits the Torah at skips up to 101,616.

By book (where the first letter stands) · every skip

  • Genesis 248,918
  • Exodus 164,961

Examples across the range

5 of the 882,160 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.
