Adynaton
E’ un’iperbole in forma di paradosso, ed infatti il suo nome in greco antico indica una “cosa impossibile”:
es: Non lo dimenticherò mai, campassi mille anni!
L’adynaton può anche essere una figura di perifrasi usata per esprimere idee di assolutezza come mai o sempre:
es: E’ più facile che un cammello passi per la cruna di un ago, che un ricco entri nel regno dei cieli. (Vangelo di Matteo, 19, 24).

Adynaton
Adynaton (from Greek: a-: without, and dynasthai: to be possible) is a figure of speech in the form of hyperbole taken to such extreme lengths as to suggest a complete impossibility.
i.e. ...it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for one who is rich to enter the kingdom of God. -- Book of Matthew 19:24
i.e. I will sooner have a beard grow in the palm of my hand than he shall get one of his cheek. -- Shakespeare Henry IV, Part 2
