PLEIW in Matt 26:53

In Matt 26:53, one finds the clause PLEIW [H] DWDEKA LEGIWNAS AGGELWN.

1. Is PLEIW a comparative here? If it is the case, what is the point of
comparison?

2. What is the grammatical explanation of the presence of [H] in several
MSS such as C E W Delta Pi Omega fam1 fam13 33 565?

3. Blass/Debrunner/Funk par. 185 speaks of genitive of comparison, but
still, I have difficulty to see what is the point of comparison.

Could someone shed some light on this point?
