The word "Leviticus" comes from the Latin translation of the Hebrew term "wayyiqra," meaning "and He called." Leviticus is the third book of the Bible and is named after the Levites, the priestly tribe of Israel who are central to the book's content.
The white vestment worn by the priest is called an alb ( from the latin "albus", meaning "white"). It also worn by deacons, servers, and occasionally Eucharistic ministers. A white vestment placed over the alb at Mass is called a chasuble for priests and dalmatic for daecons. That can be red, green, violet, or white. White is worn during certain liturgical seasons and holy days, but the alb is always white, sometimes "off" white or ivory.
"Yad" is a Hebrew word. That is its Hebrew name.
If an altar server is wearing a black or red vestment that is full length that is called a cassock. A short white vestment worn over the black or red long vestment is called a surplice. A white vestment if full length is called an alb .
The alb is the white tunic type of vestment which a priest wears over his street clothes and under the chasuble, which is the outer vestment, when he celebrates the Eucharist. The name comes from the Latin word for white. When celebrating Mass in an informal setting such as someone's home or when it is very hot, the alb can be worn without the chasuble. In either case a stole, the long, narrow garment similar to a Jewish prayer shawl, is worn symbolizing priestly authority.
There is no Hebrew equivalent of Chuck.
