1 Kings 15:13-15
International Standard Version
13 He removed his mother Maacah from her position as Queen Mother because she had made a detestable image dedicated to Asherah.[a] Asa cut down his mother’s idol, crushed it, and burned it at the Kidron Brook. 14 Nevertheless, the high places were not removed, even though Asa’s heart was blameless toward the Lord all of his life. 15 Asa brought into the Lord’s Temple the things that his father had dedicated, as well as his own dedicated gifts such as silver, gold, and temple service[b] implements.
