In the Torah

A name of more than one word is searched one word at a time, as the laboratory does: the counts on this page are for תומאס, and גפרסון has its own figure under the other spellings, each beside its chance figure.

The Torah holds 5,906 sequences of תומאס across every skip (2–76,212) — about what chance alone gives (about 6,019).

Its smallest skip in the Torah is 19 — at Leviticus 19:6, reading backward.

The longest skip at which תומאס was found in the Torah is 75,411 — at Genesis 2:7, reading forward; a spelling of 5 letters fits the Torah at skips up to 76,212.

Examples across the range

5 of the 5,906 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.
