Of course, that shows that the Ten Commandments cannot possibly be a basis, rather than summary, of morality, since the commandment "Thou shalt not commit adultery" does not put forth a moral rule, but rather reminds the audience to follow a previously existing moral rule.
Yes. People who say that the ten commandments form the basis of Western morality are not just wrong, but incoherent; there exists no possible history in which that is true.
