Thou shall not murder is ranked #6 and Thou shall not commit adultery is ranked #7. Even with different numbering conventions, the prohibition against murder is ranked ahead of the prohibition against adultery.

Think of the comandments like the bill of rights, not a ranking order.

As I said, both offenses were punishable by death in the old testament.
