The Views menu in the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) is for viewing the bookmarks in a different sorting order (hence the name Views) and doesn't sort bookmarks permanently. Clicking the column header does the same sorting for viewing purposes only.

In Firefox the option to sort bookmarks is only available for folders and not for individual bookmarks. Right-click a folder to open the context menu and choose "Sort By Name" in the left pane of the Bookmarks Manager or in the sidebar to sort the bookmarks alphabetically or drag bookmarks to the wanted position. If dragging doesn't work then use Cut and Paste instead.
