Why was the names of mothers to the kings in Judah mentioned in the Bible and not with the kings of Israel?

[Edit]

The reason is that the author of I and II Kings wanted to give special emphasis to the line of David through the kings of Judah. It would be through this line of kings that King Jesus would come. I and II Kings is anticipating the coming of the King of Kings and is preparing the reader to look for such a king from this line.
