In the Scarlet Letter, not everybody was forgiven. Dimmesdale and Hester were some of the people that weren't forgiven. The reasons that I am about to state will make it clear to why I believe Dimmesdale, Rodger, and Hester were not forgiven.
One reason that indicates that Dimmesdale and Hester weren't forgiven, was when Hester asked Dimmesdale if they were forgiven, Dimmesdale didn't give an answer. Another reason that leads to the conclusion of Dimmesdale and Hester not being forgiven, is that Hester put her letter back on. It specifically says in the Scarlet Letter that Hester was “standing beside the scaffold of the pillory, with the Scarlet Letter still burning on her breast.” There is also a reason why Rodger wasn't forgiven.
