Parris is a greedy and selfish minister which angers Proctor. He wants gold candlesticks (symbol of his greed) and the deed to his home which illustrates his desire to have importance and wealth in the Salem town. Also Proctor dislikes him because of the topics he discusses in church (mortgages, deeds, hell) and this causes Parris to believe Proctor is creating a party against him within the Church.
John Proctor's affair with Abigail is a HUGE sin because proctor already have a wife Elizabeth so it is against the law. The whole story of "The Crucible" happens because of Abigail perform a witchcraft that is drinking blood to kill Elizabeth so Abigail can be with John Proctor.
She learns to be more forgiving. Elizabeth Proctor would not forgive her husband John Proctor for having an affair with Abigail Williams once she had heard about it, but toward the end of the play, when her husband is about to be hanged, she finally forgives him and shows how much she means it. "He have his goodness now. God forbid I take it from him!"
John Proctor married Elizabeth Proctor in 1674.
