Answer:
Elizabeth
Explanation:
In the play ‘The Crucible’, Proctor is questioned by Reverend Hale of Ten Commandments. While reciting them, he forgets to list adultery as a sin.
It is Elizabeth, his wife, that reminds him of adultery as one of the commandments.
This scene and detail are intentional, as Proctor has previously cheated on Elizabeth with Abigail (who, in return, accused Elizabeth of witchcraft). Therefore, the scene where Elizabeth reminds her adulterous husband of this as God’s commandment serves the purpose of reminding him of the affair and the fact that he broke God’s word in the context of their marriage. Proctor forgot adultery as a commandment in this scene, as well as in life.
