In the Torah
The Torah holds 43,567 sequences of סוח at skips 2–5,000, 2.3% above what chance alone gives (about 42,575); at counts this large even that difference has a probability of 8.5 × 10⁻⁷ by chance alone.
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 18:28, reading forward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 650,869 sequences of סוח, against about 659,896 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 42,575 of it, so a large count is expected.
