The ancient Hebrew answer is that God spent six days creating heaven, the earth, and all living things, and then rested on the seventh day, the Sabbath. If that is true, then God in his infinite wisdom also took care to create exactly seven planets, so that each planet could lend its name to a day of the week. The Babylonians, who had a culture older than the records of the Hebrews, already had a seven-day week, and they named each day and each planet after seven of their many gods: Shamash, Sin, Nergal, and the rest. The Greeks followed suit with Helios, Selene, Ares, and their fellow Olympians, and then the Romans did the same with their gods. Rome’s influence was deep and wide, so today in most of the languages of Europe the god-planets give their names to the days of the week.
