Asa reigns over Judah and removes Maacah his mother from being queen
아사가 유다 왕이 되어 그 모친 마아가의 태후의 위를 폐함
1 Kings 15:9–15: the text says, “In the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa began to reign over Judah. He reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom. Asa did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, as David his father did.” He puts away the sodomites out of the land, and removes all the idols that his fathers had made. He also removes Maacah his mother from being queen, because she had made an abominable image for an Asherah. Asa cuts down her image and burns it at the brook Kidron. The text says, “But the high places were not taken away. Nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect with the LORD all his days.” He brings into the LORD’s house the things that his father had dedicated, and the things that he himself had dedicated: silver, gold, and utensils. Where WEB reads “David his father” (15:11), the Korean Revised Version reads 그 조상 다윗, David his ancestor; where WEB reads “removed Maacah his mother from being queen” (15:13), it reads 태후의 위를 폐하고, put down the place of the queen mother; and it names no one who cut down the image, where WEB names Asa.
