d King Asa committed serious transgressions. (2 Chron. 16:7, 10) Yet, he is mentioned favorably in the Bible record. Although he initially rejected correction, it is possible that he later repented. Overall, his good qualities outweighed his errors. Significantly, Asa worshipped only Jehovah and sought to remove idolatry from within his kingdom.—1 Ki. 15:11-13; 2 Chron. 14:2-5.
