SH'LACH STATS

37th of the 54 sedras; 4th of 10 in Bamidbar

Written on 198 lines in a Sefer Torah (ranks 25th)

10 Parshiyot; 7 open, 3 closed

119 p'sukim, ranks 21st, 6th in Bamidbar

1540 words, ranks 27th, 5th in Bamidbar

5820 letters, ranks 27th, 4th in Bamidbar

Sh'lach has shorter than average p'sukim, which explains the drop in ranking for words and letters, yet the rise in rank within Bamidbar indicates that there are sedras with even shorter p'sukim
