Quick answer
Moses was unequaled in the signs and wonders God sent him to perform against Pharaoh and Egypt. His ministry was marked by mighty acts of deliverance.
Overview
The verse recalls the plagues and miracles of the exodus, through which God redeemed Israel by Moses' hand. These signs authenticated Moses as God's chosen deliverer and revealed God's power over the nations and their gods. They prefigure the greater redemption accomplished by Christ, whose signs revealed Him as God's appointed Savior (John 20:30-31).
