Proctor forgot the commandment on adultery and it is significant because he shows how he is not so faithful to his religion and him forgetting the adultery commandment implies that he must have done something bad dealing with adultery that made him forget the commandment. The affair with the 17 yr old Abigail.( adultery)
John Proctor forget's adultery in the Ten Commandments, this is ironic considering John committed adultery with Abigail Adams.
Thou shall not commit adultery
The commandment forbidding adultery
The cast of The Second Commandment - 1915 includes: John Mackin as Sahki - a Sunworshiper
It's ironic because he does not remember the commandment he is guilty of (adultery from sleeping with Abigail)
Thou shalt not commit adultery.
John 15:12New King James Version (NKJV) 12 This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.

Ironically he forgets the commandment "Thou shalt not commit adultery", the only one he has broken.
