2 Chronicles 15:18

16 King Asa also removed his grandmother Maacah from her position as queen mother because she had made a detestable Asherah pole. Asa chopped down the pole, crushed it, and burned it in the Kidron Valley.

17 The high places were not removed from Israel, but Asa’s heart was fully devoted all his days.

And he brought into the house of God the silver and gold articles that he and his father had dedicated.

19 And there was no war until the thirty-fifth year of Asa’s reign.
