Because the Jewish people believe the day starts in the sunset (and not in midnight).
This is because of the description of the creation of the world in the Old Testament :
"And the evening and the morning were the first day." (Genesis 1,5)
(The same in all the days of the creation)
The description of a day here is first evening, and then morning.

Manna rained down from heaven for six days but nothing on the seventh day. there are only 6 working days a week mentioned in the scriptures and the 7th day is the of rest. one person who gathered firewood on shabbat was killed for violating the shabbat in other words, there could only be a continuous six days work and one day rest so that man could obey the command regarding shabbat keeping. in a lunar month there are weeks that exceeds six days of work until the next shabbat which the scriptures never mentioned of.
