Auch setzte der König Asa seine Mutter Maacha ab, daß sie nicht mehr Gebieterin wäre, weil sie der Aschera ein Götzenbild gemacht hatte. Und Asa hieb das Götzenbild um und zermalmte es und verbrannte es am Bach Kidron.
Auch setzte Asa, der König, ab Maacha, seine Mutter, daß sie nicht mehr Herrin war, weil sie der Ascherah ein Greuelbild gestiftet hatte. Und Asa rottete ihr Greuelbild aus und zerstieß es und verbrannte es am Bach Kidron.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Ver. 16-18. And also concerning Maachah the mother of Asa the king,.... Or rather his grandmother, 1 Kings 15:10,
he removed her from being queen; the Septuagint version is, "that she should not minister to Astarte"; which was the goddess of the Zidonians; of this and the two next verses, 1 Kings 15:10- :,
1 Kings 15:10- :,
1 Kings 15:10- :.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 2 Chronicles 15:16. Concerning Maachah — See the matter fully explained in Clarke's note on "1 Kings 15:13".
The Jews imagine that Maachah repented, and her name became changed into Michaiah, daughter of Uriel of Gibeah; and that this was done that there might be no mention of her former name, lest it should be a reproach to her: but we have already seen another gloss on this name. See on 2 Chronicles 11:20.
