'Removed' in the Bible

And he put away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his father had made.

And also Maachah his mother he removed from being queen, because she had made an idol for the Asherah; and Asa cut down her idol, and burned it in the valley of Kidron.

But the high places were not removed; only, Asa's heart was perfect with Jehovah all his days.

And he walked in all the way of Asa his father; he turned not aside from it, doing what was right in the sight of Jehovah. Only, the high places were not removed: the people offered and burned incense still on the high places.
