Hi James - and welcome to the forums

I don't know Hebrew but from looking at the Blue Letter Bible online, it shows that there are intervening characters between one of the pairs of occurrences.
This is shown in the Logos Reverse Interlinear (I'm using the NIV) which numbers the position of the words in the original text. This shows that the word is in positions 11, 14 and 17 with intervening characters between them. This would explain why it doesn't appear in the search results. Does this explain it?

First time ever posting, I lead a bible study at my church. I was researching why the bible sometimes has repeated words. I am currently looking at Genesis 9:12 in the blue letter bible and it has the word bayin (H996) repeated 3 times in a row. I am wondering why this didn't show up in your search?
