As we know, Jesus is in the Old Testament.
("He explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself." -Luke 24:44)
"and when he sees the blood on the litnel and on the two door posts , the Lord will passover the door and not allow the destroyer to enter your houses and strike you." (Exodus 12: 23)
This is foretelling the justification we receive as children of God and believers in Christ.
("Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him." -Romans 5:9)
When God sees Christ's blood that has covered us and our sins, the wrath that we deserve passes us and we are not destroyed, but delivered into a better land. It is nothing we did, but in fact, what Christ accomplished on the cross. Dying the death we should have received, and because of his blood we are free.
