Vengeance and Retribution Are Mine: Community, the Holocaust, and Abba Kovner's Avengers (Hebrew: לי נקם ושילם: היישוב, השואה וקבוצת הנוקמים של אבא קובנר) is a book by Israeli historian Dina Porat on Nakam, a small paramilitary organization of Holocaust survivors led by Abba Kovner and which plotted genocidal revenge against the German people. Porat chose the title to express her belief that the Jewish people should leave revenge to the God of Israel. It was first published in 2019 by Pardes Publishing / Haifa University Press in Hebrew, and is the first scholarly book on Nakam.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]
