Here's a list I have in some old training notes of mine. I've used the first reference in teaching the alphabet, but I cannot vouch for the accuracy of the rest of the list.

Psa 18:2-3
Exod 16:16; Deut 4:34
Jos 23:13; 2 Kgs 4:39; 6:32; 7:8; 2 Chron 26:11; Ezra 7:28, 21; Neh 3:7;
Esth 3:13
Isa 5:25; 66:17; Jer 22:3; 32:29; Ezek 17:9; 38:12; Dan 2:45; 3:22; 4:20;
7:19; Hos 10:8; 13:2; Amos 9:13; Zech 6:11; Zeph 3:8
Eccl 4:8

By the way, though some of these could be coincidence, it is surely not coincidence that there are so many alphabetic verses in the כתובים! Or what do you think?

Perhaps many of you are familiar with the sentence "The quick brown fox
jumps over the lazy dog" which contains all of the letters of the
English alphabet and which is used for typing classes and such. I was
wondering, do any of you know of such a sentence or a verse in the
Hebrew Bible which contains all the letters of the Hebrew aleph-bet? I
would like to use something like that as a drill in first-year Hebrew
for learning the aleph-bet. Thanks!

Alan
