In the Torah
A name of more than one word is searched one word at a time, as the laboratory does: the counts on this page are for איש, and בשת has its own figure under the other spellings, each beside its chance figure.
1,390,109 sequences of איש at skips 2–5,000 in the Torah, close to the 1,409,129 that chance alone would produce.
The shortest skip at which איש appears in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 2:10, reading forward.
At every skip the Torah allows (2–152,424), איש is found 20,995,880 times; chance alone would give about 21,840,892.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 1,409,129 of it, so a large count is expected.
