In the Torah
The Torah holds 246,096 sequences of ענן at skips 2–5,000, 3.6% above what chance alone gives (about 237,545); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 2.1 × 10⁻⁶⁸ by chance alone.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 49:22, reading forward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 3,715,867 sequences of ענן, against about 3,681,851 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 237,545 of it, so a large count is expected.
