Where it comes from
In Genesis the day begins at evening, not at dawn — the evening and the morning were the first day. The Hebrew day starts in the dark and moves toward light.
Genesis 1:5
And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
