1 Kings 15:11

And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of the Lord, as

Melachim Alef 15:11 In-Context

9 And in the twentieth year of Yarov‘am Melech Yisroel, Asa began to reign as Melech over Yehudah.
10 And forty and one years reigned he in Yerushalayim. And shem immo was Ma’achah Bat Avishalom.
11 And Asa did that which was yashar in the eyes of Hashem, as did Dovid Aviv.
12 And he removed kedeshim (the male and female cult prostitutes) out of HaAretz, and got rid of kol hagillulim (all the idols) that his avot had made.
13 And also Ma’achah immo, even her he deposed from being Gevirah (Queen Mother), because she had made a mifletzet (idol) to Asherah; and Asa cut down her mifletzet, and burned it in the Kidron Valley.
