Rav Shimon Schwab zt"l compares this midrash to a Rashi in Bereshis where he quotes the Talmud in Sanhedrin. Kayin kills Hevel and Hashem tells Kayin that the "bloods (d'mei in Hebrew for blood, in the plural) of Hevel your brother call out to Him from the ground." Why ‘bloods' and not blood? Rashi answers that bloods refers to the blood of Hevell as well as his unborn children and great grandchildren. Rav Schwab zt"l comments that when we look at a Jew, we don't just look at the fruits of his present but we also look at the fruits of his future. A few Jews died and didn't merit leaving Egypt, but had they lived they would have been the forefathers to tens, thousands and even millions of Jews.
