In the play the crucible what is parris real reason for pleading for postponement of the execution?

Reverend Parris changes his plea In Act iV. Previously, he had fervently accused John Proctor, Elizabeth Proctor, Rebecca Nurse, and Martha Corey as witches, but now, after he found a note and dagger at his door, he is fearful for his life because people no longer support him. He fears that if anyone confesses then people will start to believe in witches again.


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.


In The Crucible what is Abigails relationship to Parris?

Abigail is Parris's niece. Parris is the new reverend in the chuch, but no one really likes him because he wants to change to much. Proctor really hates him for this reason, which is why he stopped going to church.
