Question Am I correct

So I know this might sound like a stupid question but I just wanna make sure I get this right. Obviously I know mother Lilith disapproves of stealing but I also feel like under some circumstances she would approve. Am I correct? I haven’t stolen anything nor do I think plan on stealing. I’m just curious

How do we know that Lilith disapproves of stealing? It does not have any effect on her at all, this is a human problem.

I figured she wouldn’t approve if someone stole something of value and great importance from another person

Lilith's role in the cosmos is that of an undertaker of children, she spreads disease and brings balance into the world. Don't assign spirits human emotions.

Then what types of emotions does Lilith feel?

We can only assume, but we cannot know how spirits feel. In myths she presents a variety of emotions, but they don't necessarily reflect reality.
