What are the mighty works, wonders, and signs that God did through Jesus?

Acts 2:22 (ESV)

22 “Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with mighty works and wonders and signs that God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know

Though there is a similarity between mighty works, wonders, and signs, the Greek words each have a somewhat different focus. The word miracle emphasizes the supernatural nature of an event, sign focuses on how the event draws attention to God, and wonder relates to the effect of an event on an audience.1
