Exegesis
The clause touto adynaton estin {τοῦτο ἀδύνατόν ἐστιν | toû-to a-dý-na-ton es-tin} presents a neuter demonstrative subject touto ‘this’ with a predicate adjective adynaton ‘impossible’, emphasizing the inherent impossibility of the situation under discussion (the salvation of the rich, in the broader context).
In context — Matthew 19:26
But Jesus looked at them and said, “With people this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
