Because the Hebrew alphabet reads from right to left.
‘Backwards’ is subjective.

Technically English is the backwards language.

They would argue that non-Jewish books open backwards =)
Some languages read from right to left rather than left to right like English, so it makes sense for them to start at the back.

the alphabet moves from right to left in Hebrew.
Very tough to type, if you’re not used to it

The Hebrew language is read from right to left instead of left to right like English. Arabic and ancient Chinese are also "right to left" languages.

The earliest Hebrew script was derived from a Phoenician script. The modern Hebrew script was developed from a script renowned as Proto-Hebrew/Early Aramaic. The earliest renowned writing in Hebrew dates from the 11th century BC. Hebrew is a member of the Canaanite group of Semitic languages. It was the language of the early Jews, but from 586 BC it started to be replaced by Aramaic. By 70 AD use of Hebrew as an everyday language had largely stopped, but it continued to be used for literary and religious functions.
Texts in the Hebrew language are written from right to left in horizontal lines, which clarifies the books opening the opposite way that ours do – since we write from left to right horizontally.
