1) [line 8] KIVU'A D'YARCHA - when the new month started
*2*) [line 14] BI'ZEMAN SHE'EIN BEIS HA'MIKDASH KAYAM - that is, even when
the Beis ha'Mikdash no longer stood the Lulav was taken on Shabbos, if the
first day of Yom Tov fell out on Shabbos. (We do not follow this practice
today because the Gemara later, 44a, rejects this understanding of the
Beraisa - TOSFOS DH Inhu)

Netilas Lulav, such as cutting the Lulav from a tree

5) [line 39] MILU'IM
(a) The first seven days of the Avodah in the Mishkan in the desert were
called "Shiv'as Yemei ha'Milu'im." The word "Milu'im" means "filling," and
refers to the fact that during these days the status of the Kohanim as
Divine servants was "filled," coming to its completion (RASHI to Vayikra
8:22). These seven days started on the 23rd of Adar and lasted until Rosh
Chodesh Nisan, which was the eighth day.
(b) During the Yemei ha'Milu'im, the Kohanim and all of the parts and the
utensils of the Mishkan were smeared with Shemen ha'Mishchah (see Background
to Shekalim 16:6). Many Korbanos, called Korbanos ha'Milu'im, were offered.
Moshe Rabeinu officiated as the Kohen Gadol during these days, teaching the
Avodah to Aharon and his sons. On each day, Moshe assembled and dissembled
the Mishkan, until the eighth day, on which he left it standing. On that
day, Aharon was officially appointed as the Kohen Gadol and the Shechinah
descended to dwell permanently in the Mishkan (RASHI ibid. 9:23).
