1 Chronicles 27:1-3 King James Version (KJV)
27 Now the children of Israel after their number, to wit, the chief fathers and captains of thousands and hundreds, and their officers that served the king in any matter of the courses, which came in and went out month by month throughout all the months of the year, of every course were twenty and four thousand.
2 Over the first course for the first month was Jashobeam the son of Zabdiel: and in his course were twenty and four thousand.
3 Of the children of Perez was the chief of all the captains of the host for the first month.

Army Divisions
27 This is the list of the Israelites who served the king in the army. Each division was on duty one month each year. There were leaders of •families [clans], commanders of a thousand men, commanders of a hundred men, and other officers. Each division had twenty-four thousand men.
2 Jashobeam son of Zabdiel was in charge of the first division for the first month. There were twenty-four thousand men in his division. 3 Jashobeam, one of the descendants of Perez, was •leader [chief; commander] of all the army officers for the first month.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.
1 So these men served for a month leading the king’s army, this may be with the exception of periods of war and at that time im sure all were brought in so they could have the every man they could in their army to avoid lose. Not each group was the same size this would be for tactical reasons because smaller groups while less might could move undetected easier.
2 This wouldn’t be January but the first month of the Jewish calendar. This was a very large group but this would be during the start of war season so big number was needed and they could bring in more if needed.
3 So he lead during the first month which may have been the fiercest due to it being the start of war season and this may mean he had the most experience in war and would be likely to find himself in war.
