In the Torah

At skips 2–5,000, הדו appears 632,126 times in the Torah; chance alone would give about 637,403, so the count is in line with chance.

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

Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 9,833,442 sequences of הדו, against about 9,879,475 from chance alone.

A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 637,403 of it, so a large count is expected.
