About Poetry and Wisdom Books in the Bible
Songs and prayers of praise and lament most naturally cluster in the book of Psalms, although they can be found elsewhere in the OT as well (e.g., 2 Samuel 22 [and Psalm 18]; 1 Chronicles 16; Habakkuk 3). There is considerable ***overlap here, with*** some of the “epic poetry” found in the Pentateuch (e.g., Genesis 49; Exodus 15; Deuteronomy 32; 33) and beyond (Judges 5). Wisdom and “song” often come together (e.g., Ps. 49:4), and the parallel structure of the Hebrew poetic line was a perfect vehicle for proverbial sayings (Proverbs 10–31).
How do you understand the sentence? Does it imply that the same poems that appear in the Pentateuch and beyond also appear in the Psalms? Or does "overlap" have a different meaning here?

so normal meaning
"Songs and prayers of praise and lament" are found most naturally "in the Psalms but also in "2 Samuel 22 [and Psalm 18]; 1 Chronicles 16; Habakkuk 3)" AND also, "some of the “epic poetry” is also to be found "in the Pentateuch (e.g., Genesis 49; Exodus 15; Deuteronomy 32; 33) and beyond (Judges 5)"
