In the Torah
The Torah holds 193,228 sequences of הגי at skips 2–5,000 — about what chance alone gives (about 197,572).
The shortest skip at which הגי appears in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 4:14, reading forward.
At every skip the Torah allows (2–152,424), הגי is found 3,038,110 times; chance alone would give about 3,062,274.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 197,572 of it, so a large count is expected.
