In the Torah

Across every skip (2–101,616), ויטל appears 145,344 times in the Torah — 8.1% more than the 134,472 chance alone would give; the probability of 145,344 or more by chance alone is 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁸⁸.

The shortest skip at which ויטל appears in the Torah is 2 — at Exodus 31:2, reading backward.

The longest skip at which ויטל was found in the Torah is 101,432 — at Genesis 1:4, reading forward; a spelling of 4 letters fits the Torah at skips up to 101,616.

Examples across the range

5 of the 145,344 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.
