The queen mother held significant influence in the royal court, often advising the king and participating in state affairs. Asa's decision to depose Maacah demonstrates his commitment to eradicating idolatry, even when it involved family. This act aligns with the biblical principle of prioritizing God's commandments over familial ties, as seen in Matthew 10:37. because she had made a detestable Asherah pole
The Asherah pole was associated with the worship of Asherah, a Canaanite goddess linked to fertility and often considered a consort of Baal. Such idolatrous practices were strictly forbidden in Israel (Deuteronomy 16:21-22). The term "detestable" underscores the abomination of idolatry in the eyes of God. Asa's actions reflect the Deuteronomic reforms that sought to centralize worship in Jerusalem and eliminate pagan influences. Asa chopped down the pole, crushed it, and burned it in the Kidron Valley
The destruction of the Asherah pole was thorough, signifying a complete rejection of idolatry. The Kidron Valley, located east of Jerusalem, was often used as a place for disposing of impurities and idols (2 Kings 23:6). This act of burning in the Kidron Valley symbolizes purification and the removal of sin from the community. Asa's actions prefigure the cleansing work of Christ, who purifies believers from sin (1John 1:7). Persons / Places / Events 1.

Teaching Points Commitment to Godly LeadershipAsa's actions demonstrate the importance of prioritizing God's commandments over familial ties. Leaders must be willing to make difficult decisions to uphold righteousness. The Danger of IdolatryThe removal of the Asherah pole highlights the need to eliminate anything in our lives that competes with our devotion to God. Idolatry can take many forms, and we must be vigilant in identifying and removing it. The Influence of FamilyMaacah's position as queen mother shows the potential influence of family members on our spiritual lives. We must discern and address any negative influences, even from those closest to us. The Importance of Public TestimonyAsa's public act of destroying the Asherah pole serves as a testimony to his commitment to God. Our actions should reflect our faith and serve as a witness to others. Bible Study Questions and Answers 1.What is the meaning of 2 Chronicles 15:16?

14.In 1 Kings 15:2, why does Abijam's mother appear as 'Maachah,' while 2 Chronicles 13:2 identifies her differently?What Does 2 Chronicles 15:16 Mean King Asa also removed his grandmother Maacah from her position as queen mother•2 Chronicles 15:16 begins by noting, “King Asa also removed his grandmother Maacah from her position as queen mother.” • In Judah, the gebirah (queen mother) held real authority (cf.1 Kings 2:19;Jeremiah 13:18). Asa’s action shows his commitment to God’s covenant even above family loyalty. • Parallel account:1 Kings 15:13 records the same removal, underscoring its historicity. • The Law required God’s people to put obedience before kinship when idolatry was involved (Deuteronomy 13:6-8). Christ later echoes the principle inMatthew 10:37. • Practical takeaway: true reform starts in our own “house,” refusing to let sentimental ties excuse sin.
because she had made a detestable Asherah pole• The verse continues, “because she had made a detestable Asherah pole.” An Asherah was a carved wooden image honoring the Canaanite fertility goddess (Deuteronomy 16:21). • God had repeatedly forbidden such symbols (Exodus 20:4-5;Deuteronomy 7:5). • Calling the pole “detestable” matches God’s own evaluation of idolatry (Deuteronomy 27:15). • Asa’s discernment reminds us that anything drawing devotion away from the Lord must be confronted, no matter who promotes it.
Asa chopped down the pole• “Asa chopped down the pole” shows immediate, decisive action. • Obedience involved physical destruction, not mere disapproval (Deuteronomy 12:3;Judges 6:25-26, where Gideon tore down his father’s altar to Baal). • Leaders who fear God act promptly when confronted with idolatry, modellingPsalm 101:8: “Every morning I will destroy all the wicked of the land.”
crushed it• After cutting it down, Asa “crushed it,” ensuring it could never be re-erected. • Moses did similar with the golden calf, grinding it to powder (Exodus 32:20). • Thorough repentance leaves no fragments that might lure hearts back (2 Corinthians 7:11).
and burned it in the Kidron Valley• Finally, he “burned it in the Kidron Valley,” Judah’s traditional dump site for defilement (2 Kings 23:6;2 Chronicles 29:16). • By burning the remains outside the city, Asa removed both the object and its memory from sacred space, echoingDeuteronomy 13:16’s command to purge evil “completely.” • The Kidron Valley later receives the filth purged by Hezekiah and Josiah, linking Asa to a line of reformers committed to covenant purity.
summaryAsa’s treatment of Maacah and her Asherah pole illustrates wholehearted allegiance to the Lord. He placed covenant faithfulness over familial ties, dealt decisively with idolatry, and ensured its total eradication. This passage challenges believers to confront any rival to God with the same courage, completeness, and reverence for His Word. (16) And also concerning Maachah.-- 2Chronicles 15:16-18 are a duplicate of 1Kings 15:13-15, with a few unimportant variations. See the commentary there. The mother of Asa the king--i.e., his grandmother. (See2Chronicles 13:2; and1Kings 15:13). Others have supposed that Maachah the mother of Abijah, and Maachah the "mother" of Asa, were different persons, the former being the daughter of Absalom, the latter the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. There are really no grounds for this. Maachah, the mother of Abijah, enjoyed the rank of queen-mother not only during his short reign of three years, but also during that of her grandson Asa, until deposed by him on account of her idolatry. Queen.--Gebirah, lady, mistress; but always used of a queen. Compare the position of Athaliah (2Chronicles 22:2). . . . Verse 16. - Maachah the mother of Asa; i.e. the grandmother ( 2 Chronicles 11:20-22; 2 Chronicles 13:2; 1 Kings 15:2, 10, 13) of Asa; and the statement amounts to this, that Asa removed her from the dignity she had enjoyed, with all its influences of "queen-mother." An idol in a grove. This, probably, literally translated, says, an hideous fright for, i.e.in place of Asherah, i.e. Ashtoreth, or Astarte; but some translate to Asherah. The word we translate "an hideous fright" ( מִפְלָצֶת) occurs only here and in the parallel ( 1 Kings 15:13), and its derivation root guides to this rendering; but some give it the idea of an object of reverent fear among idols . Asa cut down. So it was enjoined ( Exodus 34:13-15). And stamped it; Hebrew, וַיָּדֶק; hiph. of דָקַק; the meaning being "stamped it" in the dust, from its upright position, finally burning it. The word is used in 2 Chronicles 34:4, 7; 2 Kings 23:6, 15; Exodus 30:36; Micah 4:13. The word used in the parallel is "cut off;" or "cut down; of course also preparatory to burning. At the brook Kidron. The Kidron was a torrent rather than a brook. It flowed between Jerusalem and the Mount of Olives, and finally emptied itself into the Dead Sea. The references to Kidron in the Old Testament are interesting, but all reinvested with heightened interest from those in the New Testament ( John 18:1, compared with what the parallels infer; Mark 14:26; Luke 22:39). The first two references in the Old Testament are 2 Samuel 15:23; 1 Kings 2:37. Passing these, the present place, with its parallel, brings the Kidren valley next under notice as, the place of destruction for Maachah's obscene phallic abomination, and then ( 2 Kings 11:16) as the place where Athalish was destroyed. Its associations are similar when spoken of in 2 Kings 13:4, 6, 12; 2 Chronicles 29:16; 2 Chronicles 30:14, becoming the "regular receptacle for the impurities and abominations of the idol-worship, when removed from the temple and destroyed by the adherents of Jehovah." In the time of Josiah, this valley was the common burying-place of the city ( 2 Kings 23:6; Jeremiah 26:23; Jeremiah 31:40). (For Robinson's description of the modern state of the Kidron valley, see Dr. Smith's 'Bible Dictionary,' 2:14-16).
