They attributed the holy spirit to the devil. What if they had a change of heart?
I once used to believe what they believe but now I admit I was wrong.

You really must learn the Jewish version of Judaism! There is no "devil" in Judaism. Satan has no powers of his own, only those given to him by God. His is the accuser or God's prosecuting attorney.

I think they could be forgiven because Jesus said on the cross 'Father forgive them, for they know not what they do". Jesus would not have asked forgiveness for them if it were impossible for them to be forgiven.
Attributing the ACTS of the Holy Spirit to Satan is not Blasphemy. They were unaware of what they were doing.

i am sure that in the end some repented... almost sure nicodemus was one of 'em. though we see that some were not changed at all by the events, hence the stoning of stephen, the beheading of james, the imprisoning of peter, paul etc...
they did blaspheme the Holy spirit... though, i still have to say that God would've forgiven if they had indeed repented and saw Jesus as the true son of God.

No evidence that they did. Even if they realised it they would not have been forgiven - just as Esau found out.

"Forgive them for they know not what they do"
They were forgiven as were the Romans

There is only forgiveness to those that are alive.
