Jehubbah יחבה

Jehubbah (יחבה) is a person named in the Tanakh — Hubbah. In the Torah codes, Jehubbah is found 382,000 times across every skip (2–101,616), the shortest at skip 2 (Genesis 17:23) — 2.4% above the 373,112 chance alone would give (probability of 382,000 or more by chance alone: 6.7 × 10⁻⁴⁸).

Every skip the Torah allows for a spelling of 4 letters (2–101,616), both directions, final letters folded, the written text.
At the laboratory's default range, skips 2–5,000: 35,372 found · chance alone about 35,808 (probability of 35,372 or more by chance alone: 0.99).

In the Torah

The Torah holds 382,000 sequences of יחבה across every skip (2–101,616), 2.4% above what chance alone gives (about 373,112); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 6.7 × 10⁻⁴⁸ by chance alone.

Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — at Genesis 17:23, reading forward.

The longest skip at which יחבה was found in the Torah is 101,529 — at Genesis 1:5, reading forward; a spelling of 4 letters fits the Torah at skips up to 101,616.

Examples across the range

5 of the 382,000 sequences, chosen across the range of skips — the shortest, mid-range skips and the longest found — each with its verse and its matrix.

Under each example, every letter of the sequence is listed with the verse it stands in. A letter falls in its verse by position alone — one letter every so many letters of the text — so the verses are where the letters stand, not part of the sequence's meaning.
