Gday Yousaf,

According to the Mp there are 26 verses like this, and they are listed in
Ginsburg II:456. I however could only find 17 verses using Bibleworks. They
are: Deut. 4:34, 2 Ki. 7:8, 2 Chr. 26:11, Ezr. 7:28, Neh. 3:15, Est. 3:13,
Eccl. 4:8, Isa. 17:11, Isa. 66:17, Jer. 22:3, Jer. 32:29, Ezek. 17:9, Ezek.
38:12, Dan. 5:7, Hos. 10:8, Hos. 13:2, Zech. 6:11.

HOWEVER, some of these may be wrong as the program picks up the setumah and
petumah markers in the search. So you'll have to hand check them.

There is no corresponding Mm note for this statistic that I know of.

The Mp note to look for is: ko pswq d'yt bhwn '//b, which translates, "26
verses there are in which is the alphabet". See Kelley, Mynatt, & Crawford,
p.72. They only note Jer 32.29.

With regards,
Matthew Anstey
