What is John Proctor's insight into Elizabeth proctor?

How exactly do you mean? If you mean, what is his opinion of her, then he thinks that Elizabeth is very cold. All throughout the play, all he wishes for is forgiveness for having an affair with Abigail, and she can't find it in her heart to forgive him. We can tell he feels this way because he says "Oh, Elizabeth, your justice would freeze beer!" in Act 2 of The Crucible. Before, she had mentioned that she does not judge Proctor, but finds him lost. She mentions this coldly, and Act 2 is just a glimpse of how unfair Proctor has been treated for months with Elizabeth, so much so, he feels he "Come[s] into a court when [I] come into this house." Also, Elizabeth is the main reason for Proctor to not find himself to be a good man. Elizabeth makes it clear that she does not think he is good, and it has rubbed off on him, making him lose his confidence, and his reputation with the town. I hope this helped.
