1) [line 24] IKAR SHIRAH B'FEH - "The essential aspect of the songs of the Beis ha'Mikdash is the singing"(a) Wine libations were brought with many of the Korbanos, as it states in Bamidbar 15:5-10. One of the appointments of the Leviyim in the Beis ha'Mikdash was to sing Tehilim and play musical instruments at the time that the wine libations were poured into special pipes at the top of the Mizbe'ach ha'Olah. (b) There is a Machlokes as to whether the musical instruments are an essential aspect of the songs in the Beis ha'Mikdash. Those who hold that Ikar Shirah b'Feh (the main aspect is the singing) rule that the musical instruments are not necessary, and that instruments may be played by those who are not Leviyim as well as by Leviyim. 2) [line 37] "...BEIS AV ECHAD ACHUZ L'ELAZAR V'ACHUZ ACHUZ L'ISAMAR." - "...one [extra] unit for [each family of] Elazar, but one unit for [one family of] Isamar." (Divrei ha'Yamim I 24:6) - The number of the divisions of the families of Elazar was doubled while the number of the divisions of the families of Isamar remained the same. 3) [last line] PASHCHUR - the name of one of the families of Kohanim that came back to Eretz Yisrael with Ezra and the Olei Bavel. Rashi notes that his name is not mentioned in the original list of the 24 Mishmaros of Kohanim (Divrei ha'Yamim I 24:7-18). The Keren Orah claims that Pashchur is the new title for the Mishmar of Malkiyah (#5), since the verses (Nechemyah 11:12, Divrei ha'Yamim I 9:12) mention Pashchur ben Malkiyah. (Modern sources, based upon archeological findings, identify Pashchur with the Mishmar of Yakim (#12) -- Y. Landy.)
The 24 Mishmaros, as listed in Divrei ha'Yamim I 24:7-18, are:
