What was The Bible written in?

the bible was first written down by disciples and other prophets and into different versions hence "the gospel of Matthew" and "the gospel of Luke" they have some of the same stories just worded differently also Matthew was one of Jesus' disciples so this is where the bible originated. for instance in the old testament God would talk to prophets and tell them what to write down and then later on in the new testament the people learned from these writings and then when the story of Jesus came, his followers were asked to record his teachings and this is how the bible came to be and it has been translated and often polluted by man but it is still here and so is God and alot of people still care about God.

How can a secondary source be reliable?

By quoting or referencing primary sources. For example, in the Bible when Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, or any of the other Disciples talk about Jesus they are primary sources, because they witnessed what they are writing about firsthand. Paul, on the other hand, didn't witness these things firsthand, but is hearing or reading about them from those who did.
