Thanks, http://www.berachot.org/hebrew/alhamichya_s.html You see this one, in the Brackets it has (Hashem Elokeinu) when its like that does that mean that its said when their is 3 or 10 men, or what? In the link that you put it doesn't have it, but in my benchers it does have it, I just want to know when its added or not.
In addition, when three or more men eat together, the Birkat haMazon is prefaced by the invitation known as Zimun. The Gemara (Berakhot 48b) expounds:When you have eaten your fill, you shall bless - Birkat haZimun;the LORD your God - Birkat haZan;for the...land - Birkat haAretz;...the good (land)... - Boneh Yerushalayim;that He has given you - HaTov vehaMeitiv.From this piece, it seems clear that all five of these blessings are sourced in the Torah. Although differing opinions are presented regarding HaTov vehaMeitiv and Zimun, the basic formula of the first three blessings is, according to all opinions, mandated by the Torah - D'Orayta.
