At this instant old Roger Chillingworth thrust himself through the crowd,—or, perhaps, so dark, disturbed, and evil was his look, he rose up out of some nether region,—to snatch back his victim from what he sought to do!
I think why Roger is going through all this trouble to destroy Dimmsdale is because he is jealous. If your wife had a baby with another man, and loved this other man, you would be jealous too. He just wants revenge.
Just jealous? His revenge has done far beyond just this.
