1 Kings 15:10-13

10He ruled 41 years in Jerusalem. His grandmother was named Maacah, daughter of Abishalom.

11Asa did what the Lord considered right, as his ancestor David had done.

12He forced the male temple prostitutes out of the land and got rid of the idols his father had made.

13He also removed his grandmother Maacah from the position of queen mother because she made a statue of the repulsive goddess Asherah. Asa cut the statue down and burned it in the Kidron Valley.
