In the Torah
At skips 2–5,000, פלג appears 22,522 times in the Torah; chance alone would give about 23,130, so the count is in line with chance.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Exodus 1:4, reading forward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 354,186 sequences of פלג, against about 358,505 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 23,130 of it, so a large count is expected.
