The Rav Haflaah explains why they overslept kabolas Hatorah. It says by Korach that the same way as you were unable to make from the day night so can you cannot change this. When did they want to make from the day night? The Jews held that before the acceptance of Torah they were considered a Benei Noach were the day starts from netz hachama, sunrise whereas by the Hashem says that the days starts at alos hashachar, the rise of the morning star. He waited for them at that time but they did not recognize it as the start of the day thinking that it is still night.
