Every skip the Torah allows for a spelling of 4 letters (2–101,616), both directions, final letters folded, the written text.
At the laboratory's default range, skips 2–5,000: 132,598 found · chance alone about 134,088 (probability of 132,598 or more by chance alone: 1.00).
In the Torah
1,396,106 sequences of רומה across every skip (2–101,616) in the Torah, close to the 1,397,179 that chance alone would produce.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — at Exodus 16:24, reading forward.
The longest skip at which רומה was found in the Torah is 101,555 — at Genesis 1:1, reading forward; a spelling of 4 letters fits the Torah at skips up to 101,616.

Examples across the range
5 of the 1,396,106 sequences, chosen across the range of skips — the shortest, mid-range skips and the longest found — each with its verse and its matrix.
Under each example, every letter of the sequence is listed with the verse it stands in. A letter falls in its verse by position alone — one letter every so many letters of the text — so the verses are where the letters stand, not part of the sequence's meaning.
