But what I am confused about is how is subscribe different?  Doesn't that
handle the same relationship of saying that you are "subscribing" (and/or)
requiring something?

there is subscribe/notify and require/before. The last 2 simply order resources and the first two either listen on events or fire events.

this means that if a service requires a file, puppet will only ensure that the service is managed after the file. However if the service subscribes to the file the service will restart itself when the file fires an event on change.

for further information have a look at http://docs.reductivelabs.com/references/stable/metaparameter.html
