In the Torah
The Torah holds 47,113 sequences of עזר at skips 2–5,000 — about what chance alone gives (about 47,426).
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 7:3, reading forward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 810,609 sequences of עזר, against about 735,078 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 47,426 of it, so a large count is expected.
