In the Torah
The Torah holds 332,644 sequences of פול at skips 2–5,000 — about what chance alone gives (about 334,864).
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 3:7, reading forward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 5,119,095 sequences of פול, against about 5,190,250 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 334,864 of it, so a large count is expected.
