Contextual Overview
9 And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam the king of Israel Asa reigned over Judah. 10 And he reigned forty one years in Jerusalem, and his mother's name was Maachah the daughter of Abishalom. 11 And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah, like his father David. 12 And he removed the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers made. 13 And he also removed his mother Maachah from being queen, in that she made a horrid thing for Asherah. And Asa cut down her horrid thing and burned it by the torrent Kidron. 14 But they did not remove the high places. Only the heart of Asa was perfect with Jehovah all the days. 15 And he brought in the things which his father had dedicated and his holy things, into the house of Jehovah, silver and gold and vessels. 16 And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days. 17 And Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, to keep anyone from going out and coming in to Asa the king of Judah. 18 And Asa took all the silver and gold that remained in the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and the treasures of the king's house, and gave them into his servants' hand; and King Asa sent them to Ben-hadad, the son of Tabrimon, the son ofHezion, the king of Syria, who lived at Damascus, saying,

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And forty one years reigned he in Jerusalem,.... Being a good king, had the blessing of a long reign, and reached, and even exceeded, the years of the reigns of David and Solomon:
and his mother's name was Maachah, the daughter of Abishalom; that is the name of his grandmother, see 1 Kings 15:2 she is called his mother, not because she brought him forth, but because she brought him up; and this is observed to his commendation, that though he was educated by an idolatrous woman, yet was not corrupted by her as his father was.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Mother’s name - Rather, “grandmother’s.” The Jews cal any male ancestor, however remote, a father, and any female ancestor a mother (compare 1 Kings 15:2; Genesis 3:20). This Maachah was the favorite wife of Rehoboam 2 Chronicles 11:21, and the mother of Abijam. The way in which she is here mentioned strongly favors the notion that the position of queen-mother was a definite one at the court, and could only be held by one person at a time.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Kings 15:10. His mother's name — Our translators thought that grandmother was likely to be the meaning, and therefore have put it in the margin.
The daughter of Abishalom. — She is called, says Calmet, the daughter of Absalom, according to the custom of the Scriptures, which give the name of daughter indifferently to the niece, the grand-daughter, and great grand-daughter.
