It's a director's call. I have seen it played where Theseus agrees wholeheartedly with the law, where Theseus appears to agree with it but is acutely aware that Hippolyta does not, where Theseus does not agree with it but has his hands tied, where Theseus appears to have no particular feeling about it, but seems to be encouraging Hermia to find an answer outside the law. All of these performances were by actors saying exactly the same Words, just saying them differently.
