Hi David,
@RenderBody() is a helper method in ASP.NET MVC and is very similar to <asp:ContentPlaceholder> tag in ASP.NET master pages.
@RenderBody() renders portion of a content page which that is not within a named section. ASP.NET MVC also provides
@RenderPage() &
@RenderSection() helper methods to render content of a page in other page and render the content of a named section respectively.
I suggest you to visit here:

This will give you more insight on the topic.
Hope it helps :)
