What's a Exodus?

What's a Exodus? Exodus 3:12 Excerpt ‎... [a sign is] a significant event, act, or other manifestation that betokens God’s presence or intention . Signs may be miraculous and spectacular , as in the case of those performed by Moses before the people of Israel to demonstrate that God had sent him to them (Exod. 4:1-9 , 17 , 30 ) or before Pharaoh for the same purpose ( Exod. 7-11 ). On the other hand, a natural phenomenon such as a rainbow or a sunset may be called a sign (Gen. 9:13; Ps. 65:8), as may an identifying mark such as circumcision ( Gen. 17:11 ) or even a prophet and his children ( Isa. 8:18 ).
