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 פדה, and צור has its own figure under the other spellings, each beside its chance figure.

At skips 2–5,000, פדה appears 100,360 times in the Torah; chance alone would give about 100,309, so the count is in line with chance.

Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 2:10, reading forward.

Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 1,546,666 sequences of פדה, against about 1,554,740 from chance alone.

A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 100,309 of it, so a large count is expected.
