In the Torah

The Torah holds 146,534 sequences of הדד at skips 2–5,000 — about what chance alone gives (about 146,799).

The shortest skip at which הדד appears in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 49:18, reading forward.

At every skip the Torah allows (2–152,424), הדד is found 2,264,962 times; chance alone would give about 2,275,324.

A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 146,799 of it, so a large count is expected.
