Melatiah מלטיה

Melatiah (מלטיה) is a person named in the Tanakh. In the Torah codes, Melatiah is found 8,798 times across every skip (2–76,212), the shortest at skip 11 (Leviticus 11:38) — 15% above the 7,627 chance alone would give (probability of 8,798 or more by chance alone: 2.0 × 10⁻³⁹).

In the Torah

The Torah holds 8,798 sequences of מלטיה across every skip (2–76,212), 15% above what chance alone gives (about 7,627); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 2.0 × 10⁻³⁹ by chance alone.

Its smallest skip in the Torah is 11 — at Leviticus 11:38, reading forward.

The longest skip at which מלטיה was found in the Torah is 75,568 — at Deuteronomy 33:14, reading backward; a spelling of 5 letters fits the Torah at skips up to 76,212.

Examples across the range

5 of the 8,798 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.
