If you're just looking at changes, try something like:
named-checkzone -D -o zone1-canonical.txt example.com zone1.txt
named-checkzone -D -o zone2-canonical.txt example.com zone2.txt
diff -u zone{1,2}-canonical.txt

"[named-checkzone] performs the same checks as named does when loading
a zone.... [named-compilezone] applies stricter check levels by
default, since the dump output will be used as an actual zone file
loaded by named."
See options in the man page for checks that are done by default (e.g.,
-i, -k, -m, etc.)
