A "sign" is a visible symbol of God's work on his people's behalf. Throughout Scripture, God gives signs to his people as reminders of his presence, power, and promises. The blood placed on the doorway of the Israelites' houses was a sign (12:13) that the Israelites were the Lord's people and that he would protect them from death.
