In the Torah
The Torah holds 959,519 sequences of רוב at skips 2–5,000, 0.2% above what chance alone gives (about 957,168); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 0.0082 by chance alone.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 1:22, reading forward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 14,661,221 sequences of רוב, against about 14,835,687 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 957,168 of it, so a large count is expected.
