In the Torah

The Torah holds 132,484 sequences of גלה at skips 2–5,000 — about what chance alone gives (about 135,049).

Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 15:18, reading forward.

Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 2,074,261 sequences of גלה, against about 2,093,207 from chance alone.

A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 135,049 of it, so a large count is expected.
