The first, and worse, is that Proctor's supposed evidence is all just an attack upon the court. This doesn't hold up very long, so he starts reciting everything he can think of against Proctor; that he plows on Sunday, that he only comes to church about once a month, etc. He basically puts Proctor's religious base into question. And although this doesn't do much, Proctor is eventually condemned with the help of Elizabeth's lie and Mary Warren's accusation. So Parris got his way
No Reverend Parris is not jealous of John Proctor in the Crucible. John Proctor and Reverend Parris do not like each other.

Proctor thinks that Parris talks too much about financial problems rather than religeos problems. Proctor wont let Parris baptise his third boy becasue he thinks Parris is corrupt
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 major complaint against Parris's sermons is that he preaches too much about hell and the eternal damnation of the people of Salem. Reverend Parris is a paranoid, power-hungry, yet oddly self-pitying figure. Many of the townsfolk, especially John Proctor, dislike him, and Parris is very concerned with building his position in the community.
