I let.
Josh. 2:18• 18Behold, when we come into the land, thou shalt bind this line of scarlet thread in the window which thou didst let us down by: and thou shalt bring thy father, and thy mother, and thy brethren, and all thy father's household, home unto thee. (Josh. 2:18)
;
1 Sam. 19:12• 12So Michal let David down through a window: and he went, and fled, and escaped. (1 Sam. 19:12)
• No doubt, it was a remarkable escape at the beginning of his ministry; but it was just the last thing one who sought his own glory would have repeated and recorded forever. No angelic visitors opened the bars and bolts of massive doors, nor blinded the eyes of the garrison: the Apostle was let down in a basket through a window in the city wall. Truly he gloried, not in the great deeds or sayings of his ministry, but in his weakness and the Lord's grace. (“Notes on 2 Corinthians 11:22-33” by W. Kelly)
