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 נדרי, and כל has its own figure under the other spellings, each beside its chance figure.

The Torah holds 19,605 sequences of נדרי at skips 2–5,000 — about what chance alone gives (about 19,556).

Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 37:14, reading forward.

Counting every skip from 2 to 101,616, the Torah holds 201,485 sequences of נדרי, against about 203,775 from chance alone.

  • Exodus 3,812
