The rising and setting of the sun is called an "apparent" motion, not a proper or true motion of the sun. The sun isn't doing anything special as far as rising or setting from a planet's point of view. The apparent motion comes entirely from the rotation of the planets on their axes (poles). The earth rotates (spins) on its axis (the line through the earth containing the north and south poles-- they are really part of one single line. As the earth turns from west to east, the sun and stars appear to move across the sky. Because the earth is moving toward the east, when the sun does come into view (sunrise) it comes into view at the eastern horizon.
