In the Torah

The Torah holds 11,825 sequences of דנהבה across every skip (2–76,212), 4.9% above what chance alone gives (about 11,276); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 1.5 × 10⁻⁷ by chance alone.

Its smallest skip in the Torah is 6 — at Leviticus 1:5, reading backward.

The longest skip at which דנהבה was found in the Torah is 75,482 — at Genesis 2:19, reading forward; a spelling of 5 letters fits the Torah at skips up to 76,212.

Examples across the range

5 of the 11,825 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.
