Why does not the ten days of repentance come before Rash Hashanah?
We can’t repent before we accept that we are responsible to someone. By saying Hamelech Hakadash we are proclaiming that we are making Hashem King on us. Being His servant gives us an aura of hapiness that He desires our service and He does not set us aside, but it also brings on us a sense pf responsibility. We have to atone for our lack of service that a King like Hashem deserves and repent for our bad deeds.
