In the Torah
The Torah holds 51,462 sequences of רסן at skips 2–5,000, 3.6% above what chance alone gives (about 49,661); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 4.8 × 10⁻¹⁶ by chance alone.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 19:2, reading backward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 815,964 sequences of רסן, against about 769,724 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 49,661 of it, so a large count is expected.
