In the Torah
At skips 2–5,000, לאל appears 673,442 times in the Torah — 1.1% more than the 666,122 chance alone would give; the probability of 673,442 or more by chance alone is 1.7 × 10⁻¹⁹.
The shortest skip at which לאל appears in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 2:9, reading forward.
At every skip the Torah allows (2–152,424), לאל is found 10,114,651 times; chance alone would give about 10,324,603.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 666,122 of it, so a large count is expected.
