In the Torah

The Torah holds 72,463 sequences of גתר at skips 2–5,000 — about what chance alone gives (about 72,606).

Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Leviticus 26:5, reading forward.

Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 1,165,503 sequences of גתר, against about 1,125,367 from chance alone.

A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 72,606 of it, so a large count is expected.
