Content, of course, is exactly the same. | I have an older one-volume unabridged version that is a treasure - but I think the typeface is such that poor Richard couldn't read it  (I barely can, and I'm only 38)  | 
The main difference between the 6 vol. and the 1 vol. is that the 6 volume contains the entire text of the KJV whereas the 1 vol only has the commentary. I sold my 1 vol last year because I found the print too small to read for prolonged periods.

Beware of a religion without holdfasts. But if I get a grip upon a doctrine they call me a bigot. Let them do so. Bigotry is a hateful thing, and yet that which is now abused as bigotry is a great virtue, and greatly needed in these frivolous times. I have been inclined lately to start a new denomination, and call it "the Church of the Bigoted." Spurgeon
