Have you thought about that? No logical reason for that. It makes more sense to use a 5 days or 10 days a week.

And it's not that different cultures and Empires have not tried that.
Assyrian, Old Egypt, Romans, even the communist and of course Atheistic, tried different system…...but… without any success.
So, why is the world still using a seven days week?
When working abroad, I had a colleague who used to tease me all the time, at least he tried… His opinion, as he expressed it on and on: "Everything is weird with your people ..."
The ancient Germans used a five-day week cycle. Sunday and Monday, honoring of course the Sun and the Moon…
Assyria had – 6-day week
Romans had – 8 days week
Ancient Egypt had – 10 days week
China used – 15 days week
Atheistic, always looking for something "revolutionary", so, in 1793 the French revolution wanted, to get rid of the seven-day week.
They tried a new calendar, divided into three ten-day "decades." Unsuccessfully, it never caught on, and Napoleon abandoned it in 1805.

"And God completed on the seventh day His work that He did, and He abstained on the seventh day from all His work that He did.
And God blessed the seventh day and He made it holy, because on it He abstained from all His work of creating that He had done."
(Bereishit - Genesis - Chapter 2)
That is why the world is still, and forever, will use a seven days week!
That is why all other, including the atheist and the communist, who wanted to take out God from our life, FAILED.
