The meaning of Asherah in the Bible
(From Easton's Bible Dictionary)

and pl. Asherim in Revised Version, instead of "grove" and "groves" of the Authorized Version. This was the name of a sensual Canaanitish goddess Astarte, the feminine of the Assyrian Ishtar. Its symbol was the stem of a tree deprived of its boughs, and rudely shaped into an image, and planted in the ground. Such religious symbols ("groves") are frequently alluded to in Scripture (Exodus 34:13; Judges 6:25; 2Kings 23:6; I Kings 16:33, etc.). These images were also sometimes made of silver or of carved stone (II Kings 21:7; "the graven image of Asherah," RSV). (See GROVE [1].).
