1 Kings 15:10-13

10He reigned for forty-one years in Jerusalem; and 1his mother’s name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.

11Now 2Asa did what was right in the sight of the Lord, like his father David.

123He also removed the male cult prostitutes from the land and 4removed all the idols which his fathers had made.

13And even his mother Maacah, 5he also removed her from the position of queen mother, because she had made an abominable image 6as an Asherah; and Asa cut down her abominable image and 7burned it at the brook Kidron.
