The blood was a token, or an identification, identifying this person has been redeemed. Now, well, notice, they had, they were redeemed before there was anything had ever happened. By faith they applied the blood. See, before it actually happened, the blood was applied by faith, believing that it was going to happen. See? Before that the wrath of God passed through the land, the blood had to be applied, first. It was too late after the wrath had done fallen.
