1 Kings 15:11 In-Context

9 In the twentieth year of Jerobo'am king of Israel Asa began to reign over Judah,
10 and he reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Ma'acah the daughter of Abish'alom.
11 And Asa did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, as David his father had done.
12 He put away the male cult prostitutes out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.
13 He also removed Ma'acah his mother from being queen mother because she had an abominable image made for Ashe'rah; and Asa cut down her image and burned it at the brook Kidron.
