In Bereishis 17:5, Hashem adds a ה to Avram’s name — Chazal teach He set a letter of His own Name into Avraham’s. Now count letters: from the א of אלהים in ויברך אתם אלהים (Bereishis 1:22 — the first blessing, given to the first living creatures), every 50th letter spells אברהם — forty-nine letters between each, sheva shavuos, landing on each fiftieth like the Omer count to Matan Torah. His five letters land in five consecutive pesukim (1:22–1:26); the final ם falls in נעשה אדם — and is itself the ם of that pasuk’s אלהים. Five אלהים interlaced with his five letters — one fused to his א, three woven between, one fused to his ם. The letter He added: ה — five.
Measured, not recited: of all 317 אלהים written in the Torah, this is the only one whose א opens אברהם at skip 50 — verified against the Koren letter-text this site searches. Honesty note: an ELS pattern is exploratory, never proof — the Great Sages page tells that story straight. Here the parameters — the ה, the fifty, the first blessing of life — come from Chazal; the letters answered.
