I think “Thou shalt not steal” is Commandment 8 in the Ten Commandments.

To her, it’s the “Ten Suggestions”

Overwhelmingly, the Bible is silent on stealing - except for those few instances when it is addressed, such as your 10 commandments citation (and the related tenth, about coveting). A tiny minority of the total word count.

This is akin to the mostly peaceful protesters, who spend a nearly insignificant amount of their day actually lighting fires, breaking windows, or sucker punching people. In many cases, only a minute or less of their whole day is spent on such activities - mere rounding error in the “minds” of liberals.

Number 7 or 8 depending on your tradition.

It’s the Seventh Commandment in the more traditional numbering system.

That's too deep, some people run out of steam after the first three or four and never make it all the way to #8.

Maybe it’s in cursive and she couldn’t read it.
