2 Nephi 2:4 And thou hast beheld in thy youth his glory; wherefore, thou art blessed even as they unto whom he shall minister in the flesh; for the Spirit is the same, yesterday, today, and forever. And the way is prepared from the fall of man, and salvation is free.
Lehi speaks to Jacob his son, and reminds him of how blessed he is for having seen the Lord. This 'beholding his glory' is similar to having seen him while during his mortal life.
2 Nephi 11:2 And now I, Nephi, write more of the words of Isaiah, for my soul delighteth in his words. For I will liken his words unto my people, and I will send them forth unto all my children, for he verily saw my Redeemer, even as I have seen him.
Nephi, Isaiah, and Jacob all saw Jesus Christ their redeemer before He was born on the earth.
2 Nephi 16:5 Then said I : Wo is unto me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips; and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for mine eyes have see the King, the Lord of Hosts.
Isaiah's vision of the Lord of Hosts, the God of the Old Testament - Jehovah.
