2)[line 3]åëììà äåàU'CHELALA HU?!- And is this a general principle (that the Kohen who performs the Avodah is the one who eats the meat of the Chatas)?!
3)[line 4]îùîøäMISHMARAH - the family division for duty of the Kohanim (MISHMAROS)
The Kohanim were divided into 24 shifts according to their families (Mishmaros), each of which served in the Mikdash for two weeks out of a year. The Mishmaros changed on Shabbos, when the outgoing Mishmar did the Avodah in the morning and the incoming Mishmar did the Avodah in the afternoon.

6)[line 9]øçîðà øáééäRACHMANA RABYEI- (lit. the Merciful One) HaSh-m included him (the Ba'al Mum) [to be among those to whom it is divided, through the Ribuy (inclusion) in the Torah deduced from the verse that our Gemara quotes presently]
7)[line 12]ãìàåøúà îéçæà çæéDEL'URTA MEICHZA CHAZI- since after nightfall he will be fit to perform the Divine service (e.g. Hekter Chalavim)

9)[line 33]äãøà òìéä àðéðåúHADRA ALEI ANINUS- the state of Aninus (see Background to Zevachim 98:19) returns to him
10)[line 35]ãàñç ãòúéäD'ASACH DA'ATEI- he removes his mind [from eating Kodshim] (anyone who has a Hesech Da'as may not eat Kodshim until he immerses in a Mikvah. An Onen is more likely to have a Hesech Da'as since it is forbidden for him to eat Kodshim - TOSFOS)
11)[line 36]ùìéùé åùáéòé áòéSHELISHI U'SHEVI'I BA'I - he needs the [sprinkling of the Mei Chatas on the] third and seventh [days] (MEI CHATAS)
(a)If a person (or utensil) became Tamei through touching Tum'as Mes or being in the same room as a corpse or something that is Metamei b'Ohel, he must wait seven days to become Tahor. On the third and seventh days he must have spring water mixed with the ashes of the Parah Adumah (Mei Chatas - see Background to Zevachim 93:5:a) sprinkled on him. A person who is Tahor dips three Ezov branches that have been bound together into the mixture, and sprinkles them on the person who is Tamei.
(b)On the seventh day, he immerses in a Mikvah after the mixture is sprinkled on him in order to complete his Taharah (Bamidbar 19:17-19).
12)[line 40]èîà îòìééà äåàTAMEI MA'ALYA HU- he is a person who is actually Tamei (ritually impure, as opposed to an Onen or a Mechusar Kaparah, who may not eat Kodshim for reasons other than Tum'ah)

20a)[line 8]äàåëì ùìéùé ùì úøåîäHA'OCHEL SHELISHI SHEL TERUMAH - a person who eats Terumah that is a Shelishi l'Tum'ah (TUM'AH: The Different Levels of Tum'ah)
(a)All objects belong to one of three categories:
1.Sources of Tum'ah
2.Objects that can become Tamei
3.Objects that cannot become Tamei.
(b)All sources of Tum'ah are called 'Av ha'Tum'ah' (a father of Tum'ah), except for a corpse, which can generate more Tum'ah than any other object and is therefore referred to as the "Avi Avos ha'Tum'ah." All levels of Tum'ah below Av ha'Tum'ah are referred to as Vlad ha'Tum'ah (a 'child' of Tum'ah).
(c)When one object makes another object Tamei, the second object has a weaker Tum'ah than the first. If something becomes Tamei from an Av, it is called a Rishon l'Tum'ah. A Rishon makes a Sheni l'Tum'ah.
1.Liquids are an exception to this rule. The Chachamim decreed that liquids should always be a Rishon, even if touched by a Sheni.
2.Another case in which the object touched can retain the same level of Tum'ah as that which touched it is Cherev Harei Hu k'Chalal (see Insights to Pesachim 14b).
(d)A Sheni l'Tum'ah cannot make Chulin Tamei. Terumah, however, can become a Shelishi l'Tum'ah. (If someone guarded his Chulin from Tum'ah as one normally guards Terumah, it is called "Chulin she'Na'asu Al Taharas Terumah," and can become a Shelishi.)
(e)Terumah that is a Shelishi l'Tum'ah cannot make other Terumah Tamei. However, it may not be eaten. For this reason, it is referred to as "Pasul" (invalid) rather than "Tamei." Kodesh (objects associated with the sacrifices) that is touched by a Shelishi l'Tum'ah can become a Revi'i. A Revi'i of Kodesh is "Pasul" and may not be eaten.
(f)Utensils, foods, and Jewish people, can become Tamei, as follows. (Other animate or inanimate objects cannot become Tamei.)
1.Utensils made from the metals listed in the Torah (Bamidbar 31:22), or from wood, leather, fibers produced from hair or plants, bone, and earthenware (Cheres), can become Tamei. All but earthenware can be either an Av ha'Tum'ah or a Rishon l'Tum'ah; earthenware can only be a Rishon l'Tum'ah (RASHI Eruvin 104b DH Lo).
2.Foods can only become a Rishon l'Tum'ah or lower.
3.Jewish people can become Avos ha'Tum'ah (by touching a corpse), an Av ha'Tum'ah, or a Rishon. Chazal decreed that a person's hands can become Sheni l'Tum'ah; see Background to Gitin 15:26. Chazal also decreed that a person can become a Sheni l'Tum'ah or Shelishi l'Tum'ah by eating foods that are Tamei (see Shabbos 13b).
(g)A person or utensil that is Tamei can become Tahor again through immersion in a Mikvah and waiting until nightfall. After immersion in a Mikvah but before nightfall, the person or utensil is known as a Tevul Yom. A Tevul Yom is deemed the equivalent of a Sheni l'Tum'ah, and can make Terumah or Kodesh into a Shelishi. It is more lenient, however, than a normal Sheni l'Tum'ah and cannot make liquids into a Rishon (see above, c:1).
b)[line 9]àñåø ìàëåì åîåúø ìéâòASUR LE'ECHOL U'MUTAR LI'GA- is prohibited to eat [Terumah] but is permitted to touch [Terumah - see previous entry. He is prohibited, however, to touch Kodshim]
21)[line 10]òáåã øáðï îòìäAVUD RABANAN MA'ALAH- the Rabanan created a special stringency (loftier status)
22)[line 11]îéôìâ äåà ãìà ôìéâMIFLAG HU D'LO PALIG- he does not engage in the actual division [of the Kodshim]
23)[line 12]åëé îæîðé ìéäV'CHI MEZAMNEI LEI- however, if they invite him
24)[line 16]àééãéAIDI- since [he is permitted to eat the Pesach, he may eat Kodshim, also]
25)[line 22]úôéñ ìéìåTAFIS LEILO- it "grabs" its (the following) night
26)[line 23]àðéðåú ìéìäANINUS LAILAH (ONEN)
See Background to Zevachim 98:19.
27)[line 30]ìáøL'VAR- except
28)[line 31]ùìíSHALEM- whole (not "broken" due to the loss of a close relative)
29)[line 42]ëãé ðñáéäKEDI NASVEI- it was mentioned unnecessarily
30a)[line 43]ùìîé ôñçSHALMEI PESACH - the Korban Shalmei Chagigah that is brought together with the Korban Pesach on the fourteenth of Nisan (RASHI here) (CHAGIGAS ARBA'AH ASAR)
(a)The Torah requires that each Korban Pesach be eaten by a designated group of people. When many people share a Korban Pesach such that there is not enough meat to provide a full meal for each of them, a Korban Chagigah is brought along with it. The members of the group eat the Korban Chagigah before the Korban Pesach to ensure that they eat the Korban Pesach Al ha'Sova (when they are satiated) (see Insights to Pesachim 70:1).
(b)This Korban Chagigah is not to be confused with the Korban Chagigah that a person must bring during all festivals. Every Jewish male is obligated to come to the Azarah of the Beis ha'Mikdash on Pesach, Shavu'os and Sukos, and bring an animal as a Korban Chagigah, as the Torah states, "Shalosh Regalim Tachog Li ba'Shanah" (Shemos 23:14).
b)[line 43]ùìîé ôñçSHALMEI PESACH - a Korban known as the Mosar ha'Pesach (RASHI to Rosh Hashanah 5a, TOSFOS to Zevachim 9a DH u'Shelamim) (MOSAR PESACH)
Examples of Mosar ha'Pesach include a Temurah of a Korban Pesach (see above, entry #5) and an animal dedicated as a Korban Pesach that was not brought because its owner sacrificed another animal as his Korban Pesach.
31)[last line]ëâåôéä ãôñçK'GUFEI D'PESACH- it is considered like the Pesach sacrifice itself
