What does benching mean?
Benching, or Birchas Hamazon, is made up of four main brachos. The first, thanking Hashem for feeding the whole world, was composed by Moshe Rabbeinu. The second, thanking Hashem for Eretz Yisrael, was composed by Yehoshua. The third, asking for the rebuilding of Yerushalayim, was composed by Dovid Hamelech and his son Shlomo Hamelech. The fourth, praising Hashem Who is good and does good, was added later by Chazal.
