In the Torah

At skips 2–5,000, פלט appears 19,831 times in the Torah; chance alone would give about 19,785, so the count is in line with chance.

The shortest skip at which פלט appears in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 15:11, reading backward.

At every skip the Torah allows (2–152,424), פלט is found 303,943 times; chance alone would give about 306,659.

A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 19,785 of it, so a large count is expected.
