In Numbers 15, we found out that there were sacrifices that could be made for unintentional sins— whether done by the whole community or by an individual. But there was no sacrifice to cover an intentional sin— such as working on the Sabbath, as illustrated in chapter 15 also. The tassels that Tevia in Fiddler on the Roof doesn't know the meaning of are explained at the end of chapter 15.

We turn to Psalm 36, which is a song praising God’s unfailing love.

We turn for the first time to Luke 23. Chapter 22 ended with Peter's denial of being a follower of Jesus, and we heard of the council's decision against Jesus.
Translation notes:
3 So Pilate asked him, “Are you the king of the Jews?”
Jesus replied, “[You are the one who says it.//You have said it.]”
34 Jesus said [about the ones crucifying him//0], “Father,
forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.” And
the soldiers gambled for his clothes by throwing dice.
50 Now there was a good and righteous man named Joseph. He was a member of the Jewish high council, 51 but he had not agreed with the decision and actions of the other religious leaders. He was from the town of Arimathea in Judea, and he was [one of those//0] waiting for the Kingdom of God to come.
