Again, I would ask you to read Exodus 4. The Jews were taught by God to expect signs and wonders from anyone claiming to be his messenger. As (Heb. 2:3-4) indicated, this is also true in the 4 Gospels, as well as Acts.
how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation? After it was at the first spoken through the Lord, it was confirmed to us by those who heard,
4 God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders and by various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit according to His own will.
Hebrews 2:4 would make no sense if signs and wonders were not required to convince the Jews.

Two kinds of signs. Signs that after the vision .You have just left city limits. Or sign as evidence you have just entered city limits. .
Belief a reflection or shadow of the substance as it is written .Prophecy the unseen eternal understanding
Not signs that show Jesus makes a good circus seal .No faith needed. Look and see.
John 6:30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?
The Jews for that temporal time in Egypt in that parable were used to typify the gospel to the whole world. The believing Jew were used to represent the whole of converted mankind. They knew by faith beforehand that Jehovah was coming as there savior 400 years earlier. It was prophesied. That prophecy came and fulfilled the hope of those who were born again . The unbelievers that had no faith that comes from hearing the word of God. They stood in wonderment having no faith to define the work of the hand of God moving out His people.
They believed in gods in the likeness of men and had no desire to serve a God not seen. God used signs rather than prophecy which they did not believe . He used signs to move them out of the way so he could continue to do the work of prophecy.
Prophecy for those who believe .Signs for those who rebel against the word of God.
Like the sign of those who fall backward after making a noise to confirm they mock the word of God, as sign against them . . yet they still refuse make a noise and fall backward again and again .
