Later Dr. Rotenberg examined the ELSs associated with the various Hebrew forms of expressing 13th of Adar and found that one of them had an extension: Purim. He did a WRR-like experiment involving Purim related key words against this axis and observed a p-value of less than 1/1,000. More details can be found in the book And All This is Truth by Dr. Alex Rotenberg. Clearly, he thought this ELS with the extension is the one around which ELSs for the names of the sons of Haman should be examined. So he conducted a second experiment in the book of Genesis and obtained statistically significant results.

We repeated his second experiment in the Chumash in accordance with our main standard experimental protocol to test the Null hypothesis of no Torah code effect against the Alternative hypothesis that in the Chumash nearly all the names of the sons of Haman have their ELSs in a more compact meeting with the unique the ELS of the key word: 13th of Adar Purim, יגב אדר פורים, than expected by chance.

The spelling of the names of the sons of Haman is taken exactly as it appears in the Stone Edition of The Chumash in the ArtScroll series, Mesorah Publications, Ltd., Brooklyn, NY, 2000, page 1260. Since there are some versions of the Megillah Esther, having variant spelling of the son Ariday from the spelling that appears in ArtScroll. We augment the ArtScroll spelling of Ariday with the variant.
