In the Torah
At skips 2–5,000, סרט appears 6,462 times in the Torah; chance alone would give about 6,342, so the count is in line with chance.
The shortest skip at which סרט appears in the Torah is 2 — the first at Exodus 25:25, reading forward.
At every skip the Torah allows (2–152,424), סרט is found 94,721 times; chance alone would give about 98,300.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 6,342 of it, so a large count is expected.
