Avinu Malkeinu

Quick thought:


Hashem is "Avinu" due to Ma'aseh Breishis; RH

While Hashem is "Malkeinu" due to Yetzias Mitzrayim; Pesach

Thus, RH - one half year from Passover, represents 2 sides of the same pole.


This balance is in the 2 versions of the luchos

Shabbos in Zachor (Maaseh Breishis)

and

Shamor (Yetzias Mitzrayim)


Also it is reflected in Shabbos Qiddush:

Zikkaron lema'asaseh breishis

Zeicher leyetzi"as Mitzrayim
