1 Kings 15:13-15

13And even his mother Maacah, 1he also removed her from the position of queen mother, because she had made an abominable image 2as an Asherah; and Asa cut down her abominable image and 3burned it at the brook Kidron. 144But the high places 5were not eliminated; nevertheless 6Asa’s heart was 7wholly devoted to the Lord all his days. 15And 8he brought into the house of the Lord the 9holy gifts of his father and his own 10holy gifts: silver, gold, and valuable utensils.
