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 קדש, and ברנע has its own figure under the other spellings, each beside its chance figure.
The Torah holds 55,343 sequences of קדש at skips 2–5,000, 1.6% above what chance alone gives (about 54,482); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 0.00012 by chance alone.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 6:9, reading backward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 840,418 sequences of קדש, against about 844,452 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 54,482 of it, so a large count is expected.
