A quick google search revealed that \intertext is used in the AMS math
environment. So you need to enable:

Document->Settings->Math Options->Use AMS math package

Then you should be able to use \intertext in at least the AMS 'align'
environment. You should probably research how and where this command
is used. AMS align is found under Insert->Math.

I've attached a few screenshots showing the use of \intertext. I'm not
sure why you would need to use \\[2em] in a math environment. I show
the use of it outside of the math environment.
